Captains of Character

First, I want to apologize for pictures sometimes not showing up on my posts recently. I try to upload the pictures both at home and school, as well as from my iPad, and it has been freezing up the computer and doesn't post. I'll keep trying though!!
Last week at Oakland, we started recognizing "Captains of Character" on the morning news show. These are students that exhibit outstanding character both in and out of the classroom. My first recipient was Daamini. She shows the character trait of flexibility by never complaining when we stray from routine and always going with the flow. Way to go Daamini! 

This week, we recognized Adam. He exhibits problem solving by always working hard to solve a problem on his own, especially when Mrs. Wise is working with other students! He never gives up! Awesome job, Adam!

We've been busy counting coins this week. Please work with them at home with any change you have around the house. They're getting better with this, but more practice never hurts!


Remember our Christmas Party is next Friday at 9:30. If you are able to, please send in a few dollars to help with the cost of the party. The students will be having a Zaxby boxed meal. We hope you can join us! Students will be dismissed at 11:00 that day. We can't believe Christmas is almost here!
