📢 Bear Necessities Hot Chocolate Education Day – A Sweet Success! 🍫☕
Our students had a deliciously fun and educational time at the Bear Necessities Hot Chocolate Education Day! 🎉
🍫 They explored the journey of cocoa beans—learning how they are cooked and transformed into the chocolate we all love!
📊 They sorted and graphed different types of chocolate candy, turning treats into a hands-on math lesson.
🏃♂️ They got active with a chocolate relay race and an exciting game of Chocolate Hungry Hungry Hippo!
☕ And, of course, they wrapped up their sweet learning adventure with a warm cup of hot chocolate to enjoy!
At White County Central Bear Necessities Afterschool Program, learning is always fun, engaging, and enriching! 💡📚 #BearNecessities #HotChocolateDay #LearningIsSweet #WCCAfterschool
🌟 Shoutout to Incredible Educators, Staff & Administrators! 🌟
A huge thank you to Mrs. Deanna Smith and Mrs. Lori Smith, two phenomenal 5th-grade teachers who truly go above and beyond for their students! ❤️ This Saturday, March 1st, these amazing ladies are selflessly giving up their weekend to provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the WCC 5th grade class—attending a Razorback College Baseball Game in Fayetteville, Arkansas! ⚾🐗
For many of our students, this will be an experience they may have never had otherwise. Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Lori are making it possible, demonstrating the same passion and dedication they bring into their classrooms every day. They believe that high expectations, love, and selfless acts inspire students to strive for success, and their actions speak louder than words.
At White County Central School District, we also have phenomenal administrators. Both our middle school principal, Mr. Strother, and our superintendent, Mr. Smith, will be attending the field trip to support their students and staff. Their presence exemplifies true leadership by example. WCC is blessed with leaders who not only manage but actively participate in and support our community’s growth and development.
👏 Special thanks also go to Mrs. Rebecca Patterson, who has volunteered to attend the trip as well to support our students, along with our two amazing coaches, Coach Kersey and Coach T, who are generously giving their time to drive the bus! 🚍💙
Let’s show these incredible educators, staff, and administrators some appreciation for their dedication! Drop a comment below to cheer them on! ❤️⬇️
