6th GRADE ADVISOR NEWS
This year, Sixth Graders have the oppor-tunity to be selected by their classroom teachers as "Student of the Month" from October through June. Students of the Month are selected for excelling in core subjects, going above and beyond in class, and/or being good citizens. Each student will receive a certificate for being select-ed. Four lucky winners will receive a super cool t-shirt, generously donated by the PTSO. Our October "Students of the Month" have been chosen and are featured on the Sixth Grade bulletin board. Novem-ber Students of the Month will be notified at the beginning of December. The Sixth Grade will again be participating in the Six Flags Annual Reading Challenge We hope to see all students participate this year and an earn a certificate of participa-tion and the free ticket! Paperwork will go out around Winter Break and is due back by the end of February. Tickets come in sometime around late April.
