Wagon trains continue to move along the Hacker Trail in our Pioneers simulation.  Challenge project can be completed. These are optional projects that students may complete, but points earned from these projects will help wagon trains move more quickly on the Hacker Trail.  Students may complete multiple projects if they wish.

Some reminders:

SD25 Middle Schools kicked off their 2019 Summer Reading Program, "Reach For the Stars," this month.  Current 5th, 6th, and 7th grade students are expected to read one book from this year's list, but we are hoping students will choose to read several!  Students previewed the books and learned about the summer reading program on April 18 when Mrs. O'Kelly from the South LMC visited their classrooms. You can take a look at the list and find out more information here.  Books can be purchased through SMS using this order form.  All forms are due to your home school's LMC by 5/1/2019 and books will be delivered to students before summer break.  Books can also be found at your public library or on Amazon.
