HAPPY VETERAN'S DAY

CEREAL BOX WINNERS

6th grade students recently designed their own cereal boxes in language. Their focus was to use adjectives to describe the cereal in such a way that a person would want to purchase their cereal. Not only did they have to come up with a catchy title, they had to include  ingredients, serving size, and calories.  The students created  amazing, eye-catching cereal boxes. Many of them included games, prizes, mazes, etc.  The students' names were left off the boxes so they could chose the cereal  that appealed to them without knowing the creator. 

DRUG-FREE POSTER WINNERS

Every year First Family Services sponsors  a Life Skills program for the 6th grade students in Talladega City. Mrs. Langley will be teaching the students about various topics throughout the year that will be extremely beneficial throughout their lives. This week she concluded her Drug-Free unit with a poster contest. The students worked with a partner to design a unique poster about drugs. The top 3 groups from both classes were recognized and rewarded. The students look forward to Life Skills every week. Thank you, Mrs. Langley.

GREENLAND WITH JOSHUA

The Upper Grade Academy would like to thank Joshua, a former R.L.student,  and his wife, Lydia, for sharing information about his recent trip to Greenland. Joshua received his BS degree in electrical engineering from the University of Alabama. He was asked to be on a team that researched  and created radars. His presentation was very interesting and informative. He had to have special clothing, boots, and gloves to keep him warm. His team flew by military planes into Kangerlussuaq, and then they were taken to a camp in East Grip. It was 0 degrees when they arrived there. His group  had to constantly  be on the look-out for polar bears. The ice there was two miles thick and their tents were set up on the ice. We learned so much from him. Thanks, Joshua.

 We are so proud of all of the students in the UGA. Each and everyone of them did an amazing job creating their character pumpkins. We would like to thank Talladega College student, J'Korbein, and Jacksonville State Universtiy student, Tray, for taking time out of their busy day to judge their awesome pumpkins.
