We have our first Math Facts Masters!
Our Elementary Pirates have been working hard to master their addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts!
Today, our Math Facts Master Challenge Arena officially opened! Students who earned perfect scores on their classroom Math Facts Master challenges were invited into the arena to put their skills to the test!
These Pirates rose to the challenge, mastered their math facts within their time limits, and earned their awards! Now they’re ready to move on to their next goals!
The best part? The hallway celebration as we announced our very first Math Facts Masters!
Our Pirates will continue practicing and mastering their math facts, working toward earning their spot in the Challenge Arena each Friday!
We love seeing our Pirates work hard, reach their goals, and celebrate each other’s success! We’re excited to watch ALL our Pirates become Math Facts Masters!
We are Dale! We can do hard things!

Several of our 6th-8th students attended the Oklahoma Writing Project’s Write to Win Conference at Oklahoma City University today.
Students heard from featured guest poet Ken Hada and participated in writing sessions led by OWP Teacher Consultants. Sessions focused on poetry, essays, personal narratives, flash fiction, short stories, and descriptive writing. Students also had the opportunity to share some of their own writing and work on pieces for upcoming writing contests.
