We haven't seen much of that white stuff this winter, so students in Mrs. Petry's class made some of their own. Students recently read the story, "The Snowy Day". Students then discussed story elements (characters, setting, problem and solution), and how the story progressed through the beginning, middle and end of the book. For fun, students created the book's main character and used shaving cream as snow to retell their favorite part of the story. These story retell activi...ties help students to fully understand what they have read, as well as provides for a deeper level of comprehension. These skills are important for students as they learn to read and write. #CardinalPride

It might be winter, but it looks like spring in the CHS greenhouse! As you can tell from the pictures below, Clinton High School horticulture students in Mr. Robertson's class have done an exceptional job with this year's greenhouse. Students started all of of the tomato, cucumber, and bell pepper plants from seed. They also did cuttings of ornamental plants. A big shoutout to CHS senior and FFA officer, Victor Chapa. Victor has been a driving force behind the success of this... year's greenhouse operation as well as a natural leader in the classroom.
