Students in Mrs. Craig's Human Growth and Development class have been learning about the areas of child development (physical, intellectual, emotional and social.) Last week, they interviewed LES preschoolers in Miss Kristi and Miss Kaity's classes by asking them questions relating to these four areas. CCCHS students enjoyed the opportunity to connect with the preschoolers in their classroom, as well as experience firsthand what children this age know and are capable of doing. One student shared: "I liked that we got to see what kids think like now."

The CCCHS Singing Christmas Tree performance is in its 69th year of existence. One of the best traditions involved with the performance is having the Lincoln, Garfield, and CCCMS students come to watch them perform on Friday morning. Besides giving the CCCHS choirs a chance to practice before the actual event (Sunday, Dec. 15 2 pm), it also shows the younger generation of students what they could be a part of if they want to sing in high school. As always, it is a wonderful show!

Each quarter we create a video for staff, parents, and community members who have signed up to be a USD 379 Academic Ambassador. These videos highlight different academic curriculums used in the district and how they impact our kids. (go to usd379.org/academics to sign up) We decided to share the latest video with the general public. It dives into the district’s 5-year plan to improve reading scores, which is taking place across all grade levels. We wanted to showcase the hard work and dedication ALL staff have put into making sure our students have the best ELA education in the state of Kansas! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sT5V0KUKzP8

Mr. Nordhus' Photo Imaging class played “Photoshop Bingo with a Trashketball component” today. The bingo sheets have Photoshop tools on them. When students earned a bingo, they got a chance to shoot a basket and get points when they make it. Not only are they recalling what the tools are and do, they get a chance to have a little fun as well!
