Fun at the fair! 🎃💜









At TCS, 8th grade students worked in groups to create a suspenseful short narrative based on the station cards. As students rotated through the stations, they pulled random cards to construct descriptive details about the conflict, setting, characters, challenges and types of suspense. Students then took all of the details to construct a collaborative narrative full of suspense!





For “C” week in the pre k classes at WTS they asked for “coats” to be donated to help families in the Mountains of North Carolina. Thank you to all who donated. We really appreciate your help.

At TCS, 8th grade students worked together in groups today during ELA to escape the breakout room. Students were tasked to read the text, “Examination Day,” find the task folders, break the codes and be the first to escape. Students worked on teamwork, analyzing theme and plot to prepare for their narrative writing task.
