On Wednesday, Emaleigh Rebekah won a computer at school. Wow, are we ever proud of her! Her music teacher and the Kiwanis Club set a goal for all second through fifth grade students to keep a music journal for the year. They were given a few guidelines on what to include, but the ultimate goal was to write about anything that inspired them musically. The original 400 were narrowed down to 40 using a scale designed by the music teacher. Then the principal and assistant principal chose the top 20 using the same scale. Finally five members of the community including a local news anchor and the assistant superintendant nominated the final twelve. And the winner is.....Ms. Emaleigh. In addtion to her new dell computer, parts of her musical journal will be professionally printed and put into a hard cover book. The books will be distributed to all of the elementary schools in District 11 to help inspire other students. What an honor.
