Kudos to our 8th grade Pioneers who participated in Socratic Circles for Unit 2 in their ELA class with Ms. Ha and Ms. Brown. The students researched & found a wide range of examples and connections independently on what power does to character/behavior. Students shared their thoughts amongst each other, agreeing with and debating their research. Outstanding work Pioneers! #SocraticCircles #AllIn #TheWestWay

Today our Jazz/Rock Ensemble performed at the MSBOA Jazz Band Festival at Vicksburg High School. Congratulations to Mr. Kozian and our Pioneer musicians on their amazing performance! Bravo! #MSBOA #JazzBand #Festival #AllIn #TheWestWay
