Mrs. Blackburn's Junior English class attended “Aunt Alexandra’s Missionary Tea” yesterday as a hands-on character analysis of their selected parts from Harper Lee’s "To Kill a Mockingbird". They dressed up, brought southern dishes, evaluated their characters, and conversed about the fictional trial that rocked Maycomb County and our nation. They will complete their unit with an essay test final later in the week. #celebrate379

The 3rd & 8th grade buddy teams took their learning beyond the classroom last Friday—with a local adventure full of money tips, business smarts, and… 🍦ice cream!
First stop: Riley State Bank! 💰 Josh Martin shared how to start a business and why saving money is a big deal.
Then it was off to The Bomber Grind, where Neal Summerson gave students a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to run a local business. He even sent everyone off with an ice cream treat.
Huge thanks to these amazing community partners for making economics and life skills come alive. Wakefield is lucky to have you! 💙 #celebrate379
