Coach Suber's Class Studies the Electoral College

LHS Senior Morgan Baines explains:  

During the week of October 22-26, members of the senior honor's government class are paired and will present the Presidential candidates, via visual aide (e.g. poster), to all Luverne School classes, grades 7-12. Students are allowed to state the facts only (i.e. we ask that they leave Big Bird out of the conversation). Each 3rd period class is representative of a state with the largest class equaling the largest state and electoral votes (e.g. the 3rd period band class, which is the largest during that period, is representative of the largest number of electoral votes). During the week of October 29, students in grades 7-12 will cast their votes.  The government class will compile the data, determine an LHS winner and discuss the differences of  popular and electoral vote.

LHS Government Students will simulate the map above using the results from the school-wide election.

TEAM TIGER for the Week, September 24-28, 2012:  Maggie Morgan (K), Hannah Burgans (2), Lillian Marchand (2), Hollan Helms (6), Riley Marchand (5), Gregory  Garmon (3), and Jaden Brogden (1).



CONGRATULATIONS!

Luverne School's Elementary Honor Club Inducts

Luverne Elementary Honor Club inducted 110 members on October 9, 2012, in the Samuel M. Carr Gymnasium.  Students from 4th, 5th & 6th Grades with an overall average of 90 or above in the six academic subjects were invited to become members.

Membership to this club is one of the highest honors that a Luverne Elementary School student may achieve. Students must work diligently to become a member and to maintain their membership. Members must also strive to exemplify high standards in all of their actions.

Members participated in the Homecoming Parade Last week and will participate in the Christmas Parade in December.  Members will also take an educational, fun-filled field trip in the spring.

The Honor Club hosts the “Award’s Day” Ceremonies in May of each year.

Congratulations to these students on a job well done. 

Sponsors for the Honor Club are Mrs. Shelly Hughes, Mrs. Heather Sanders, and Mrs. Traci Sanders.

Mrs. Kim Hall's Class Gets the BIG Picture

Mrs. Kim Hall's 3rd grade class recently targeted skills of finding the main idea and listing details with the reading selection of "Penguin Chick."  The students worked in groups to add the main idea and details of the selection to life size Emperor penguin models.  Students listed the main idea at the top of the model and listed supporting details on the body of the penguin chick.
