On Tuesday, December 23rd, Mr. Wagner's 8th Grade Chorus, Band and Orchestra students were treated to a spectacular performance from Ms. McLorie's Bell Canto Choir. They came to peak our 8th grade students' interest to audition for the choir. Ms. McLorie and her students answered questions for our 8th graders when the performance was over. Ms. McLorie will be back in January to hold auditions for students that are interested.
Congratulations to our December Golden Ticket prize winners! On Tuesday, December 23rd, we ran the December Golden Ticket Raffle from our PBIS Online Reward System. Golden Tickets are earned when students go above and beyond our expectations of Respect, Ownership, Courage, Kindness and Safety. Staff give them to students when they are really impressed. The following 10 students were given the choice of a school treat (Pencils, erasers, fidgets...) or a sweet treat.
Congratulations to: Ella Jenkins, Amal Lieb, Maizie Beinhower, Jacob Morales-Lopez, Ja'Celine Lawrence, Will Moore, Suhri Grove, Luke Ramsay, Eddie Mojica, and Kayden Johnson.
Keep up the great work! We are so proud of you!
Congratulations, Ms. Russum! Ms. Russum works incredibly hard in the office, keeping our school organized and supporting staff in so many ways—all while always wearing a smile. She goes above and beyond to answer our questions and handles everything with such grace and positivity. She is always willing to help in any way she can. We truly appreciate all that she does to keep our school running smoothly, and we can’t imagine what we would do without her!
We also want to congratulate our runners up: Mrs. Gehris, Ms. Confer, and Ms. Franklin. All three staff members were given a gift card to treat themselves at Dunkin Donuts. We have an amazing team here at Scott!
Donated gently used or new clothes, especially pants , would be greatly appreciated by the nurse.
