Caleb Joy-Norman contemplates his next move on the chess board he made in Construction/Design class. He also made the chess pieces using an abstract "modern" style. Putting the board together is a puzzle itself, requiring a lot of planning and precise measuring and cutting.
A classic! Owen Rudsill chose the American flag for his cutting board pattern.

Correction to our last post. COrE meets the second WEDNESDAY of each month at 6:30pm. Apologies for the confusion!
In hopes of increasing communication and supporting our wonderful teachers, COrE (a volunteer group, formerly PTA) is organizing room parents for each elementary classroom. To facilitate this, they would like to create a contact list for each grade. Participation in this is voluntary but if you would like to receive updates on class activities and ways you can help our students, please provide your email address and phone number for text messages. Also, if there are ways you would like to help, or if you have any questions about COrE or our other projects, please contact them at core@mckenziesd.org. COrE meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 6:30pm in the HS Meeting Room.
