Highland Elementary School

🐾✨ **OUR WILDCATS ARE READY TO LEAD!** ✨🐾 Today was an exciting day at **Highland Elementary** as our students interviewed for **school-wide leadership jobs!** 🎤⭐ And WOW… they showed up READY! 👏 Students came dressed to impress, were respectful and confident, and did an amazing job answering **Leader in Me**-style questions. We loved seeing them step outside their comfort zones, share their strengths, and show what it means to be a leader! 💙🤍 We are **SO PROUD of EVERY student** who took the time to complete an application, prepare for an interview, and take a chance on themselves! 🌟 These Wildcats are learning that **leadership isn’t about a title—it’s about making a difference!** 🐾 Way to go, Wildcats! We can’t wait to see you **LEAD, SERVE, and SHINE!** ⭐ 💙🤍 **GO WILDCATS!** 🤍💙 #HighlandWildcats #LeaderInMe #StudentLeaders #WildcatPride #LeadServeShine

Mrs. Bevins' class had a great time this week with hands on learning and Kagan strategies. We even tried out a few new ones like Numbered Heads Together and Fan and Pick. We also practiced our vocabulary words using Quiz Quiz Trade. We went outside and wrote addition equations. We then applied our addition skills to review rounding from last week on a number line. We also have a new Student of the Week and our first birthday of the year. It's been an awesome second full week of school!
