Students read books and had to pass comprehension quizzes through the Accelerated Reader program in order to count the words they read. All students worked incredibly hard, and these students rose to the top of the academic competition. Students received coupons from local restaurants and a South Elementary Reading Champion t-shirt.

Warsaw South Elementary is pleased to highlight our November Students of the Month, selected for demonstrating the character trait of thoughtfulness. When we think of a thoughtful student, we often think of someone who is considerate, caring, and attentive to others. The students highlighted this month go out of their way to help their classmates succeed. They have a natural ability to sense when someone needs support. These students reach out to others who seem lonely and make sure everyone feels included. We appreciate these students for being excellent role models. Their selflessness and compassion are an inspiration. Climalock provided pizza and soda for these students to celebrate their achievement. Congratulations to our thoughtful Students of the Month: Novalie Fusch, Alaina Jones, Makayla Snow, Violet Barerra, Chesney Felix, Cora Thomas, James Trujillo, Syngen Rivera, Ray Thomas, LuLu Wehrly, Jackson Haddock, Braelyn Wood
To kick off a math unit about shapes and their attributes, South Elementary First Graders made Christmas trees decorated with different shapes! Our class made a tree together, and each student got to choose an ornament to add to the class tree. We then identified the shapes, counted them, and recorded them on a chart. After the class made a tree, each student got to make their own individual tree.
Our firsties had a great time using their knowledge of shapes to get in the holiday spirit!
Sorry for late notice, but Bus D is running way behind this morning. We are working with get students picked up as quickly as possible.
