This week, Mrs. Zysset's Parenting class got to take a little day-long adventure with a hands on learning experience. Each class member took a baby home for a day and got a little peak at what life as a parent would be like.
Recently, students bought paper flamingos to place on the door of their teacher of choice, knowing what the consequences would be for their intended educator. Mr. Venna edged out Mr. Yost and Mr. Fegley to earn the right to dress in the bright and elegant flamingo costume for one whole day. This SMART fundraiser is one that middle schoolers will never forget.
