Kirsten Baird
Discussion:
Mrs. Baird thanked the board for the district gift of the blanket and also for the blinds she was allowed to purchase for her room. In her classroom, the fifth graders are doing a project using sequential order. Students are to pick something they are good at and comfortable with .. and then to give step-by-step directions to the rest of the class on how to complete it. Students really enjoy this topic and it hits several of the state standards.

Sarah Rudd
Discussion:
Mrs. Rudd shared the Christmas program is next Monday and the grade school kids like being able to use props and the music is fun. In her Interactive Media class they are using a laser engraver that works on wood and metal surfaces. The FFA purchased cutting boards and had the Interactive Media class engrave their logo on them. These were presented to the board. The class is learning about organization, ordering, inventory, quality control, and other business practices.
