ELA Students Read
Seedfolks

This past week, Mrs. Jenkins' (formerly Ms. Metcalf)
students read a novella titled
Seedfolks
by Paul Fleishman.
In the coming week, students
will create an original narrative
that inserts themselves into the
garden setting in the novel. However, students were required to send in a photo
of themselves with their crop
or contribution
to their virtual garden.

"Savana Sanders has not only stayed on top of her work for the *two* classes that I have her for, but has stayed in regular email contact with me to discuss any concerns or confusions. She's doing a great job!
Also, Haley Baswell has submitted work that is so detailed, it could be used as teacher KEYS! Keep up the great work! ~Mrs. Jenkins (Ms. Metcalf)
"CHAMP Shoutout to AP Calculus students Bria Brindle, Bryce Lynch, Bethany Maddox, Anokhi Patel, Lauren Patterson, Grant Pixley, Allison Spence, Catherine Stevick, and Mallory Turner for joining in our virtual class from 9-10 each morning!"
~Dr. Williams
"MP Construction Program has recently implemented the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) eLearning online programs. NCCERconnect programs allow MP construction students to resume their normal studies with our standard textbooks in a digital edition. There was a lot of front-end work required to bring the "Connect" programs online at MP and some of that was done by MP students. CHAMP Shout Out to Faith Jones, Caroline Buffington and Gabe Imlay for conducting the beta test of the Connect modules. Thanks for being Courteous - by helping an old dog learn a new trick - and Motivated to help fellow students through the intricacies of a new learning platform!"
