When a ZERO is Good!
A group of 4th and 5th-grade students from Ray Crowe Elementary had a fun start to their week. The students, who are part of Club Zero, went to Rascals because they did not receive any discipline referrals throughout the school year. They enjoyed various activities such as playing miniature golf, driving go-karts, and playing games for free thanks to their Warrior Way, points, and a grant. Congratulations to the students!
We are thrilled to congratulate the outstanding Spanish students from WCHS who have demonstrated excellence on the 2024 National Spanish Exam (NSE), earning well-deserved national recognition.
In this year's competition, students secured a remarkable 1 gold, and
3 bronze medals, in addition to 15 honorable mentions. The achievement of earning a medal or honorable mention on the National Spanish Exam (NSE) is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our students.
The AATSP Exams is a program of the esteemed American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese (AATSP). With a rich history dating back to 1957, the National Spanish Exam (NSE) is administered annually from grades 6 through 12 and serves as a cornerstone of academic achievement in Spanish language education. As the largest of their kind in the United States, the NSE attracted over 80,000 student participants in 2024. Achieving gold, silver, or bronze status in the NSE opens doors for students to explore a variety of scholarship opportunities provided through the AATSP Exams program. Information about the AATSP Exams can be found at www.nationalspanishexam.org.
Congratulations to all the students who participated in the competition and commend them for their hard work, determination, and commitment to mastering the Spanish language.
Mastering Success!
Congratulations Mrs. Garg who graduated with a Masters in Education with an English as a Second Language license!

We would like to express our gratitude to the WCHS Landscaping class for their help in planting and restoring our outdoor reading area at CES. It needed a lot of work, but thanks to their hard work, it is now ready for our students. Also thanks to the PTO for purchasing plants.

The CPMS eighth-grade band and choir students had an amazing trip to Chicago! They visited the Museum of Science and Industry, had dinner at the House of Blues, and enjoyed a performance by The Blue Man Group. One of our students, Ben Verel, was invited on stage to participate.
Baby Birds!
Ms. Lawson's second-grade class at Clark Elementary has a bird's eye view of newly hatched baby birds outside their window. The mother Robin returned this year.
A fun activity during morning announcements, at PCES. A song clip was played, and teachers had to call in and name the song title and artist. Congrats Mrs. Brodbeck and her 4th-grade class for winning the $25 TARGET GIFT CARD. The song was "Raining Tacos" by Perry Gripp.
Dissection Day!
They can be slimy and smelly, but kids in Mrs. Evans' 6th grade Science class love exploring earthworms. These invertebrates are great for dissections and provide an opportunity to teach comparative anatomy and the digestive system. The nerves at the beginning of the dissection always lead to excitement upon completion. One student even expressed interest in becoming a Science teacher!
The CPMS Chapter of the National Junior Honor Society inducted 53 new members this spring. They join a rich tradition of excellence for over 37 years! Welcome, and Congratulations NJHS!

A Dramatic Field Trip!
The field trip that took place on Friday, to The Indiana State Museum, was a great success! The students demonstrated The Warrior Way by showing excellent behavior at the museum and they also enjoyed and appreciated the theatre experience. We heard nothing but positive feedback from the students. Many of them had their first-ever visit to the theatre and found the performance engaging and captivating. The rap, rhythm, rhyme, and story of Frederick Douglass truly left them spellbound!
The 129 students, from Grassy Creek and Break-O-Day elementary, earned a Warrior Way Experience with Ms. Ruby.
