LATHAM, Mo. -- Our second quarter AR and good behavior party was Friday. Students who meet their quarterly AR goal or have no late assignments nor office visits are able to attend. If they qualify for a party in each quarter and meet their AR goal at least three times, they will be able to attend our big AR field trip at the end of the year!
School board filing ended on Dec. 28. We had two filers, Matt Pardoe and Donna Higgins. Since this matches the number of vacant seats, there will be no election in April.
We honored our honor roll and principal honor roll recipients for second quarter. Each student achieving at least a 3.0 GPA in grades 3-8 were awarded a free ice cream cone coupon from Sonic! Students who are on the honor roll with a GPA 3.0-3.99 are Creed Colburn, Will Dicus, Hunter Thornburg, Jorja Dicus, Noah Meloy, Clabe Messerli, Jersey Monie, Natilee Gunnerson, Kayden Rambo, Josie Bricker, Addie Dicus, Gatlin Fulks, Isabella Fulks, Grace Higgins, Rhilynn McArthur, Jasper Ponthieux, Emma Batye, Kaylee Moser, Grandt Pardoe, and Garret Roush. Students that are on the principal honor roll with a 4.0 GPA are Rylee Higgins, Carson Pardoe, Jeimy Pedraza, Payton Higgins, Myra Haas and Ashley Bolinger.
