Whiz Kidz Hall of Fame!!
Whiz Kidz!!
This is a club for students who are interested in achieving "above and beyond" classroom expectations. All you have to do is learn all about the topic, and then come tell Mrs. Hansen the answers during recess, lunch break, or before or after school. You can become a 1 star member, all the way up to an 62 star member. Your name will be displayed on our classroom wall chart recognizing each star you earn. If you earn more than 15 stars, you will earn a place in the Whiz Kidz Hall of Fame. At the end of the year, we will have an awards ceremony recognizing our Whiz Kids Achievers!!
