Teacher-led staff report highlights classroom projects, culinary fundraiser and trips
Summary
John, presenting the staff report, summarized classroom instruction and extracurricular activity updates across grades, noted a high school culinary class made 200 cookies for a game-night fundraiser and described multiple upcoming trips and FFA activities.
John, the teacher presenting the staff report, told the board that elementary classes are working on multi-digit addition/subtraction and opinion writing while middle-school electives now include personal finance and mock-trial units. "The high school culinary arts class made 200 cookies for the game night," John said, and noted the class is starting a cake-baking unit for a Tyler Campbell Memorial bake scheduled for Feb. 6.
John also reported that 15 students are finalizing plans for a World Bridges trip to the Everglades and Florida Keys in June and that the journalism class will publish the Cougar Chronicles soon. He described junior-high elective activities — from forensics to house-design projects — and said the district’s FFA students are pursuing state degrees, with several running for state office.
The report included extracurricular logistics: junior-high band and instrument needs (trumpets, saxophone, snare drum), an outdoor club ski trip planned for March 14, and plans for senior job-shadow presentations and senior panels in April. John closed by thanking the board and noting teachers’ classroom progress and upcoming events.
