8th graders have been reading “The Giver.” Today the students tried to “see beyond” like Jonas was able to see colors that others in the community were unable to see. They had fun trying to see the hidden images.

Students in reading have been working hard to analyze the meaning of the poem, “The Song Of The Shirt.” Today they worked in small groups to summarize the poem.
Miss George organized a Campout Challenge to celebrate 3B finishing their division unit. Students had to wander the campsite to solve problems and complete the challenge! How Fun!

MLK had a dream, and the local library downtown asked junior high students to share some of their dreams. In English Language Arts, students reflected on what is important in their lives. The dreams will be posted on a bulletin board at the Mt. Pulaski Public Library.

Since we couldn’t have solo and ensemble this year, Mt. Pulaski choir (also known as forte forte) had our own performance on Thursday during chorus class. We performed our song that we have been working on since we got back from Christmas break with piano and had a judge give us comments over zoom. All students were six feet apart and wearing masks during performance. The choir got a division 1 and got medals for their awesome performance. A special thanks to Becky Kunken for being our piano accompaniment and for Jonathan Parker for being our judge for this event.

Parents & Guardians: Morning Drop Off - please pull your vehicle all the way to the first barricade. If you are between barricades, please have your child exit your car. If you have to get out of your vehicle to assist your child please try to pull all the way forward and do so quickly. If your child is eating breakfast please have them dropped off at 7:45 so they have plenty of time to eat. Breakfast is 7:45-8:00.
