Today we are celebrating an outstanding 5th grade Tiger from Mr. Flemmer’s class!
This student is someone who could be nominated for a Good News Call every single day! She consistently works hard, treats others with respect, and makes responsible choices - no matter what is happening around her. She leads by example, brings a positive attitude, and almost always has a smile on her face!
In art, she is thoughtful and creative, takes responsible risks with her artwork, and truly thinks like an artist. She is a wonderful example of what it means to be responsible, respectful, and creative while encouraging those around her to shine, too.
We are so proud of the way you continue Growing Your Great Mind and making Explorer a better place! 🌱🧠✨

We are celebrating an awesome learner from 3B! Mr. Silvernail nominated him for being responsible, respectful, kind, and caring. 🐯
When Mr. Silvernail needed a student to step up, mirror his iPad, follow directions, and help support the learning of the entire class, this Tiger jumped at the challenge! He took on the responsibility with confidence and did an amazing job.
We are so proud of his willingness to step up, help others, and challenge himself to GROW! 🌱
Way to go! Keep Growing Great Minds!
