The sixth grade orchestra conducted by Mrs. Emily Fringer played songs for students during the character ed assemblies. They have been practicing three times a week for half of the year. They have learned a lot in a short time and sounded great. “We hope it will be twice as big next year!” said Mr. Sainsbury, the school principal.
Students learned that reading really does pay. In conjunction with March Madness students were drawn out to win cash by shooting baskets. They could enlist teachers or friends to help shoot. Congratulations to those that were chosen.
Students learned how to be safe on the internet. Never give out personal information, don’t meet anyone in person that you met on the internet. Tell a parent if something makes you uncomfortable. Don’t open emails from people you do not know. Don’t be a cyber bully and don’t use the computer all day.
