Here's some great Wahawk news! Mrs. Willey has been very proud of the hard work of her social studies class.  She would like to recognize the following students for their hard work this week:

·         Gabby Smith comes to class each morning ready to learn.  She readily participates, always has her work done, and has a great attitude.

·         Starr Towne has worked exceptionally hard.  She makes sure to complete all of her work during her at home days and always asks clarifying questions.  

·         Taylor Gukeisen puts forth admirable effort each day in class.  She works hard to understand the content, often steps out of her comfort zone in class, and isn't afraid to ask for help if it is needed.

Keep up the great work 8th graders! 

And also, great work to those of you who have been showing your Wash Values and have been picked for the Wash Values Drawing!  Prizes will be delivered to our winners on Monday and Tuesday of next week!  Congratulations to Gwynn Clemen, Verronica Brown, Camrynn Walsh, Lawrence Bunsocan, Bea Romagna, and Ashley Maas!
