Great Grades!

Last week we officially kicked off the "Great Grades" program.  

(Originally known as Rallying for Bulldog Improvement)

Waterloo Chamber of Commerce, along with local businesses sponsor this program.
It is designed to encourage 4th and 5th grade students to improve their grades each quarter.

All students received a Dilly Bar to kick off the program.

All students also received one of these cool bendy pens. 

 The program focuses on self-improvement, while also teaching about GPA.  Unlike a normal honor roll stystem, there is no minimum GPA required.  As long as their GPA increases by at least 1% from one quarter to the next, students are eligible to receive the award.

*Inside the report card envelope was your child's goals and GPA grade calculations for this program.
