We have many things to celebrate this week at Crane Elementary. Congratulations to our January Students of the Month! (Pictures were posted in a separate Facebook post.)
We had students add their work to our Refrigerator Work space: Mia wrote her numbers to 120, forming all of the numbers correctly. Jimmy scored an 88/84 A++ on his Civil War test. His constructed response answers were filled with great detail. Greyson scored a 9/10 on his spelling test this week. He gave his best effort in doing this test. Zoe scored a 100% on adding and subtracting fractions, a new skill taught this week. Great Job!
Stockmens Bank purchased t-shirts once again for all Elementary students. These will be going home today. They will be worn during our Quarter Assemblies, field trips, or any other time they could be required. Thank you Stockmens Bank!
The JV and Varsity Lady Pirates had a dominating night over the Southwest Lady Trojans. Great job Lady Pirates!!!

Congratulations to our Jr High and High School January Students of the Month, Brock Cline and Waylon Mease! About Brock, his teachers shared: 1) Brock is a hard working kid. He is well respected by his peers and is respectful in class. I appreciate that he comes into class ready to work. 2) Brock is attentive in class, listens to instructions well and tries his best. He is well liked by his peers and is never a disruption in class. About Waylon, his teachers shared: 1) He is always engaged and very cooperative...a pleasure to have in class. 2) Waylon is always positive and full of joy. If you're having a bad day, Waylon is sure to cheer you up! He encourages other students to do their best and holds them accountable for it. Waylon is a natural leader and has a way of including everyone without even realizing it. Inclusion is a great quality of his! Keep it up, Waylon!
Thank you, Brock and Waylon!
