Another one of Mrs. McVay’s classes (Mrs. Moore’s Homeroom) officially earned their Water Party after completing an impressive 385 Freckle lessons with 100% accuracy! 👏📚 Even better — they’re already working toward their next reward with over 30 additional lessons passed.
Freckle is an online program that gives students reading and math practice at their individual level, helping them grow at their own pace.
Yesterday, they celebrated with popcorn, picking their favorite water flavors, and adding a sweet candy twist.
Great job and keep up the hard work, Eagles! 🎊🥤🍿
