A big thank you to the Winona High School Admin. and school board for making it possible to put up our “Winona Wildcat All-State Athletes” banner. Also a big thank you to Mrs. Whitney Thacker for putting in the time and tracking down each athlete that deserved to be recognized.
The elementary Kindness Club is currently hosting a food drive.
Our 3rd-grade classes engaged in a book tasting event last Friday discovering different genres of books. Donuts and juice complemented the experience perfectly! Students enjoyed sampling various books while savoring treats. Many discovered new preferred genres and are now enthusiastic about reading more. The teacher effectively utilized this opportunity as well. Later that afternoon, they had a paper airplane competition.
5th grade has been working on understanding dominant vs recessive traits. They “inherited” various traits they had to draw, then partnered up and used Punnett squares to determine likely traits of the offspring.
