Geography bee held

On Jan. 20, fourth- and fifth-grades at Maugansville Elementary School participated in the school geography bee.

All fourth- and fifth-graders were able to view the bee on the school’s streaming technology. Families were also able to view the contest through technology in the computer lab.

The first-place winner was fifth-grader Andrew Jason. The runner-up was fifth-grader Emmaleigh Morris, and Kylie Cunningham, a fourth-grader, took third place.

A special thank you goes to Dena Rodgers, the school’s enrichment teacher, for organizing the bee.

Poster contest winners named

Students at Maugansville Elementary participated in a poster contest to promote Red Ribbon Week, which was titled “Life is a Journey — Travel Drug Free.”

Winners won gift packs of school and art supplies and a yo-yo, which were donated by the PTA. This year’s grand prize winner was Sophie Scheck.

A special thank-you goes to art teacher Deb Geis for her guidance and effort in this project. Another thank-you goes to Karen King, school counselor, who organized and promoted the activity for Red Ribbon Week.
