They are asking all students to bring in non-perishable food items to be donated to El Caldito Soup Kitchen right here in Las Cruces. Whichever house has the most donations will win a pizza party. Food collection ends Thursday, January 23rd.
Mr. Barrera's science classes are doing a mini project on tsunamis and will present to their classmates. Ask them to practice their presentations on you!
Mrs. Wendler's media classes are currently filming PSAs. Ask your student what theirs is about. Better yet, have them share their completed video with you.
Mr. Blais is keeping track of student activity on Duolingo each week. Encourage your student to log on each week for a lesson or two. It's an easy way to acquire house points!! ELA students are also working on completing the second draft of their Optimist International essay contest. Read your student's to see how they have remained positive in the face of adversity.
