Jill Foster's fifth graders at Vinyard Elementary in Ponchatoula held a funeral to bury negative words and feelings from the past. They all promised to be fair and positive in class this year. Each student had to list a few bad things that happened in school in the past, for example, getting bad grades, not  doing homework, and scoring unsatisfactory on LEAP or iLEAP. The students are now ready to start fresh this year in 5th grade. Their goals are set high! Bye Bye to the negatives!


The students at Hammond Eastside Primary have made a pledge in their health class to avoid eating excessive amounts of unhealthy snacks and replace them with snacks such as cheese and crackers, fresh fruits, yogurt, and fresh vegetables. “It is during childhood that our attitudes towards healthy eating are established,” stated Ms. Carolyn Schwebel, the Health and Safety instructor.

The bulletin board display serves as a daily reminder for the children. Students pictured from Mrs. Sandra Holley’s class include: Jon, Demoriea, Carlos, Tyree, Tyana, and JaQuan.


 

West Side Middle School's new principal, Melissa Ryan, spends some time in one of the special classes at the school.
