We had a great time celebrating Mrs. Davis' class for earning the highest attendance average for January! We celebrate attendance because research continues to show that students who attend school regularly have been shown to achieve at higher levels than students who do not have regular attendance. Thank you to all of our Pearl families for partnering with us in our attendance efforts!

Over the past semester, the students in Mrs. Jennings's 4th grade Reading class read the novel, The One and Only Ivan. Using this novel as inspiration, the students worked with the ACE teacher to build a zoo enclosure that would meet the needs of their chosen animal. Working in groups, the students researched their animals, designed an appropriate space, and built a diorama of the enclosure. Finally, the students acted as tour guides for other students visiting the zoo.
