Mrs. Walk gave students a "cup challenge today" for her last day. The students had to move ten cups without using their hands. They were required to use good communication skills, teamwork and perseverance to stack the cups into a tower. All the students exhibited positive communication skills even when they became frustrated if their cup got knocked on the floor or their towers fell. They were persistent until all groups had completed their challenge.
Jesus Perez finished a desk for his bedroom made of oak and stained a dark walnut color. He did an excellent job.

Last week, English 1 students participated in an English survival challenge that encompassed the four components of English: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. They collaborated with their team to compete and complete various types of challenges each day.

The overall winners scoring 92 points from the freshman class are Myles, Peyton, and Tinsley.
