| Spelling Bee -- Wilson Elementary |
| Wilson Elementary hosted its annual Spelling Bee with our 1st and 2nd grade students on April 10th. We had a multitude of excellent spellers representing each class with their spelling skills! Each grade level had its own contest, with four top spellers representing each classroom. These four top spellers were chosen from each room after individual classroom spelling bees. The students studied hard before the contest. During the competition, they did their very best at spelling words that got increasingly more difficult after each round. After several "grueling" rounds of spelling, three top winners were awarded in the first and second grades. First grade spelling bee winners were: 3rd place - Zaydon Johnson, 2nd place - Brindy Tijerin, and 1st place - Tag Goodrich. Second grade spelling bee winners were: 3rd place - Lily Glover, 2nd place - Janae Mangan, and 1st place - Leah Rule. We are very proud of all of their accomplishments. -- Lee Ann Due 4/22/2014 |

| Herald Elementary Aides Encouraging Students |

Our wonderful Aides (outside every day in the car loop) have been dressing up every day for testing to encourage the students to have a positive attitude. Today they dressed up like Rock Stars, complete with guitars and posters telling the students to Rock the Test! Every day it has been a different theme and they do this all on their own because they love their job! They are on duty every morning at 8:00 in the Car Loop. Wednesday, the costume
theme is going to be "Crush the Test. |
