👏 👏 Mr. LaBlanc's Sophomore Careers Classes would like to express a genuine thank you to Officer Paul Houx from the Clayton Police Department 🚔 and also to Amy Strobach and Misty Wood from the Clear Lake Ambulance Service 🚑 for coming in and providing valuable knowledge about their respective careers! There's nothing quite like hearing firsthand about what it takes to be successful in the world outside of the school building!

🫙💰💲 Early this month, Amery Free Press representatives Tom Stangl and Donna Jilk, spoke with the 5th-grade class in preparation for their annual student "Design An Ad."

🧦 Rock Your Socks on Friday! 🧦
We encourage all students and staff to wear their most mismatched, colorful, or fancy socks to help raise awareness for Down syndrome. 🧦✨ The idea is to spark conversations—when someone asks about your socks, take the opportunity to share that you’re wearing them in support of World Down Syndrome Day! 🧦✨

Our Spanish II students recently wrapped up the international music bracket competition Locura de Marzo, joining over 240,000 students from all 50 states and 15 countries! 🎶🌎 In this competition, students listened to songs from the Spanish-speaking world, with two songs going head-to-head each day as students worldwide voted for their favorites.
Our students created their own brackets to predict the winners and learned to express their opinions about the songs in Spanish. They also explored the artists' backgrounds, their home countries, and even learned some of the lyrics! It was a fun and immersive way to engage with music and culture! 🇪🇸🎤🎶 Our Clayton Spanish II winner this year was Macy Grosskreutz. ¡Felicitaciones!
