3/1 Dress like a tourist or like you're on vacation for the Read Across America Challenge. Homeroom teachers across district will get weekly logs for students to track minutes of reading. Each minute of reading counts as one mile as we track our way across the USA. Reading logs will be distributed weekly to homeroom teachers and then collected so minutes/miles will be tallied and you can watch your homeroom's progress across a map that will be displayed at each school. This challenge will start March 1 and go through March 31.

We’ve had so much fun the past month at Saturday Morning Basketball! Our Mustang athletes-in-training have been developing their dribbling and shooting fundamentals through various drills. They’ve also enjoyed their favorites: Red Light Green Light, Sharks & Minnows, and some five-on-five games. These are fun ways to practice ball control, keeping our eyes up when dribbling, and ball protection. Can’t wait for our last session on March 4th!

Our professional development day was filled with time for our teachers to get work done collaboratively and independently while some also had dedicated trainings to do. We were still able to come together as a district to promote wellness in various ways such as through yoga, drum-fit, Zumba, meditation, walking, and many other activities. Thanks to the staff members that led these activities. We are also thankful High Point- Lake Geneva joined in with us on our promotion of wellness with our staff by donating a plethora of teas for our staff to enjoy with their lunch!! See you all tomorrow, Mustangs. We sure missed you today.
