School Year 2013-2014

Kylee - 7th Grade at Jefferson Middle School
favorite subject - English
favorite teacher - Ms. Best.  I like her because she is crazy and gets distracted, so there is less work.

Her friends were Karlee Jarmon and Callista Wayt.  She had classes and ate lunch with them.

She did FCS (Family and Consumer Science) for her elective.  In the class they did hands on learning about cooking, sewing, and taking care of babies.  She was in the 8th period, so they were also the set up crew for dances and football games.  She really liked going to the football games, and would stay after school to man the concessions booth for the Wednesday night football games as part of FCS.

With her GT class she got to be part of a Mentathalon competition with the Northside School District involving all the 7th grade GT classes from the different middle schools.  They had different activities for competition including an egg drop challenge, junk sculpture, aerodynamic challenge, rush hour game, and tangrams.

Her church friends are Stephanie Stockwell and Stephanie Franco.  She is always on pinterest pinning quotes.

Brayden - 5th Grade at Kuentz Elemantary
Teacher - Mrs. Rodriguez - 1st, Ms. Robertson - 2nd
Favorite Subject - Science
Favorite Specials- Art
Favorite Food - Chicken Patty
Friend in Class - Mason

During the beginning of the year he played with Matthew Stockwell during recess.  In the end of the year he would swing on the swings during recess.

Some highlights of the year - Mrs. Rodriguez gave him a big swirly lollipop because he got a hundred on his Math test and everyone else did not do very good.  He really enjoyed the fun projects Ms. Robertson did.  She had them create their own planet, and read a book and answer questions.

Ms. Robertson would have them earn tickets in their class by being good and helping her out.  He would earn a bunch of tickets and would earn homework passes.  He was excited he didn't have to do a social studies project because of the tickets.  He did the Cardio Coyote club for half the year.  He jumped on a pogo stick for a Christmas program.  He liked the second teacher better.

Brayden was super excited to start the year at a new school.  Soon after they started he decided that he actually liked his old school more.  One of the main reasons was PE class.  He said that PE was not fun because they didn't get to play games and just spent time learning sports like basketball, hockey, and golf.  He also said there was a lot more cussing at Kuentz. On a scale of 0 to a 100, he gave Kuentz a 90 and Bob Lewis a 60.
