meeting of the staff will be held
this Friday, so be on the watch
for our first publication of the
“North Star.”
Wednesday was a big day
around Nome Hi for the first re

Quite a few students will make
the honor roll. Those whose
grades are not all they hoped for
have resolved to do better during
the coming six weeks.

day for Kingston, Washington,
where he will continue his fourth
grade work. The classes of his
room enjoyed a little treat and an
hour of games as a farewell to
Ronald. The art class under Mrs.
Judish has completed pottery
bowls in correlation with an Indi
an project being carried out in the
third and fourth grades. The
bowls have hardened and are soon
to be painted with Indian designs.

strom, LeRoy Reader, John Wass
mann, and Mary Joan Thompson
had perfect attendance records

great fun. Tess Bronson brought
paper plates for everyone to make
decorative masks.
Sth Grade
Our class was glad to get their
report cards this week. Some of
our new books arrived. We were
very glad to get them, as some
pupils have had to study together.
We are all going to work hard to
make our folks proud of us. Mrs.
Dunbar read for our “Recreation
al Reading Class” a story about a
ten-year-old boy with ‘bas-relief
freckles’, who was kidnapped. We
enjoyed this humorous story.
6th Grade
This week we have been happy
to get some of our new text books.
We are hoping our new History
and Arithmetic texts will be com
ing soon. We are happy to wel
come Bobby Petersen, David Will
oya and Harold Charles to our
room. In Art we have been study
ing leaves and have some inter
esting drawings on display. We
also have made some Hallowe'en
masks, some of which are horrible
looking. Since report cards came
out this week some of us think we
