North & South Elementary first graders had quite the honor earlier this week as local veterans from the 40 & 8 visited to share about the history and importance of the American flag. Students recited the Pledge of Allegiance and learned how to properly fold the flag. 🇺🇸 #WildcatTradition #ProudAmericans #Honor #Respect

South Elementary Students of the Month are selected based on the character traits they learn in their counseling lessons each month!

🌟Kindergarten: Audrey and Austyn Ridgley
🌟1st Grade: Katie McCloud & Serenity Hughes
🌟2nd Grade: IvyLynn Foster & Timber Simons
🌟3rd Grade: Athena Wedlock & Luna Jackson
🌟4th Grade: Aislyn Hyder & Cora Thomas
🌟5th Grade: Cabella Phillips, Vigil Jackson, Lillee Jackson

October’s character word is responsibility — completing tasks with good effort and making good choices. 👍🏼

Congrats to our September Students of the Month! 👏🏼

🔬🌱 Mrs. Harris’ 5th graders at South Elementary took their mini handheld microscopes outside for some hands-on science! They investigated the underside of leaves to find stomata—tiny openings that act like little mouths, helping plants “breathe in” air so they can grow. 🍃✨ #WildcatTradition #ScienceFun
