The 7th Grade Reading Fair at Alva Middle School was a huge success! Our students did an amazing job showcasing their books, projects, and creativity. It was great to see their hard work on display at Literacy Night.
Thank you to Jaci Heaton, Sally Eggleston, and Cara Bradt for serving as this year's judges.

Before Christmas break, Longfellow wrapped up the 12 Days of Wigmas with a grand finale on Wigmas Wednesday, where staff joined Mrs. Tucker in wearing fun wigs to celebrate the occasion!
Mrs. Tucker wore a wig for 12 days as a reward for students collecting 1,200 food items for the food pantry in November. She challenged students to collect 100 food items for each day she wore a wig, and they rose to the challenge in a big way.
At their PRIDE assembly on December 18th, Mrs. Webster joined in the fun by wearing a wig to thank her students for collecting 100 food items and bringing them to Longfellow’s food drive. Longfellow felt it was only fair that Mrs. Webster wore a wig for the day as well.
