Congratulations Mrs. Sara
Jennings
Mrs. Jennings,
who has been working as the Literacy Coach for the district and has worked
closely with the High School, guiding and managing professional development,
teacher professional practices, and learning communities, has been selected as the new interim Assistant Principal at
Stevenson Elementary. Mrs. Jennings brings over a decade and a half’s worth
of experience to her new position. She will officially start in a full time
role at Stevenson at the beginning of the Spring Semester in January. Dr. Janet Hurt will take over her
duties at the high school in assisting with the many roles that Mrs. Jennings
filled.
Book Club Travels to BG
to see Wonder the Movie
Mrs. Tina Shoemake
started with a desire to get more of her 6th graders reading through
the formation of a book club. What
she ended up with was a massive movement that included 4th and 5th
grade students from Stevenson all the way through the 8th grade. Through
the Russellville Reads Grant under the supervision of District Supervisor of
Instruction Dr. Steven Moats and
working with District Instructional Coach Cassie
Reding, each member of the book club was provided a personal copy of the
book Wonder. Upon completion of the book, 60 SES and RJHS students traveled to
BG where they were able to see the words come alive on the silver screen.
