Mrs. McCloud and her kindergarten students took some time to review before taking an assessment. She first explained to the students the correct way to mark an answer on the test. Then, she read the question to the students, and helped them identify the images on their papers. Students were being assessed on stories they had read over the past week.

Co-leaders, Mrs. Darveau and Mrs. Janssen, were able to have a lunch meeting with some of this year's Student Council members. At this meeting, they discussed potential Greater Crusader Cart prizes. Throughout the week, students are awarded Greater Crusader Tickets for doing things above and beyond what is expected of them. As a class, these tickets are counted and turned into the office every Friday. One ticket from each grade level is drawn from a basket on Friday, and that student is able to pick a prize from the Greater Crusader Cart!
Tune in next week to see who will be in the spotlight.
