These 6th graders were chosen to become Peer Leaders in 7th and 8th grade! They turned in applications, interviewed, and were rated by their teachers based on their overall schoolwork and character in order to be chosen. All of the students who applied did a great job, but these were the final 10 selected. This week they completed a training to be prepared for when they help in elementary classrooms this fall.
Two 6th grade students helped Mrs. Wells teach the 5th graders all about middle school. There was a lot of information shared, and a lot of great questions asked. Hopefully the 5th graders will feel a little more prepared for middle school in the fall!
Today, we recognize National Speech-Language Pathologist Day. We want to thank the SLPs serving our students for the important work they do to help address communication-related challenges. We appreciate you! 🤗

Congratulations to the class of 2023! 🎓
Hawk Place experienced a few more new experiences the last month. We made homemade applesauce, Amish Friendship Bread, learned from a Money Management activity visiting a grocery store to find the best meal with the least money spent and a second hand clothing store to find the most inexpensive outfit. The event they seemed to enjoy the most was the cooperative helping hands activity. Students partnered up with one being the hands of the other student. The "helping hand" student closed their eyes and tried to feed their partner cereal, brush their teeth, comb their hair, and shave or put on makeup with directions from the "seeing" partner. ( razor with blade removed - safety first). Along with these fun learning activities students enjoyed crazy hair by the Impulse Dance Team and celebrated Ms. Abby's graduation.
Celebrating 24 years of Awesomeness! Enjoy your retirement, Mrs. Broadhurst!
May is Asian American and Pacific Island Heritage Month. 🇯🇵🇺🇸🇵🇭 We’re taking this time to recognize the unique perspectives of the AAPI community and the richness of their experiences. We hope you’ll join us!
REMINDER: Central Lee CSD will not host an in-person registration day this summer. Registration will be online only. Registration opens on Thursday, June 1, 2023.
Each year, 4th graders work with their classroom teacher to select a person who made a significant contribution to the world to learn more about. They spend time researching for facts in order to write biographical paragraphs to share as an oral presentation. Mrs. Ann Canida works with each student to create an art project to represent their research that provides wonderful visual impact. Students embody their special person for this event with costumes and Mrs. Heather Madsen teaches songs that tie to many of the chosen historical characters. Parents are invited to school to watch the whole group music and individual biography performances. As always, seeing our students get excited about learning and wanting to share that learning with others makes us #Proud2bCL!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there! We hope you have a truly wonderful day. 💐 #Proud2bCL

By taking a major leadership role, these students grow from the experience and benefit the chapter.

The following are general duties expected of all officers: • A genuine desire to be part of a leadership team. • A willingness to accept responsibility. • A sincere desire to work with all chapter members in meeting their leadership, personal and chapter goals.• A commitment to lead by example. • Knowledge and understanding of the chapter, state and national FFA constitutions, bylaws and programs. • A working knowledge of parliamentary procedure. • The ability to memorize official ceremonies.
