On Monday, December 16th, the 7th-grade students in Mrs. Hada's and Mr. Wooten's reading classes took part in the annual Reading Fair. Each student read a novel of their choice and created a display board featuring various elements of the book, including tone, plot, conflict, and more. They were then interviewed by two community members to demonstrate their understanding of the novel. That evening, the boards were on display for parents, peers, and community members to observe and appreciate the students' hard work.

Congratulations to Washington’s Top Gotcha winners for the month of December! We are so proud of your great choices!

"Maybe Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas... perhaps... means a little bit more!" ~Dr. Seuss From all of us at Alva Schools, Merry Christmas , Goldbugs!!!
