On February 7, I was the weather girl for KTVN. When I arrived, I got to see the entire news studio - it was huge. There were lights, cameras, cords, TVs, and a ton of people working. After my tour, I was welcomed into the studio, where I worked with Mike Alger, the Chief Meteorologist for KTVN. He worked with me on my lines, the weather forecast, and where to stand. During my time on air, I gave a shout-out to my teacher, Mrs. Janine Mello, because she’s the coolest teacher ever. I also made Mike Alger a KTVN bracelet so he could have something to remember me by. He told me that this was the first time any weather kid had given him a gift. After that, I was set to leave. Back home in Fallon, my family had a viewing party to watch me on the news. Being able to be the weather girl was really fun. I think if you are shy, it might not be a great idea to sign up, but for me, it was amazing.
NELC (below): During classroom walk-throughs last week, Amanda Hammer observed students in Octavia Merrit’s class engaged and busy developing early literacy skills. “These are the types of activities we love to see happen in our classrooms. These students are engaged, having fun, and best of all are learning. Our teachers are the best at teaching them in ways that don’t feel like work but feel like fun. We truly have the most amazing staff,” said Hammer.

The Middle School Academic Olympics recently concluded with a bang, leaving everyone in awe of the incredible young minds that took part. The four sixth graders and five eighth graders sure hit it out of the park despite all the challenges. This competition was a roller coaster of intellectual challenges and intense rivalries. From solving math problems in record time to deciphering many complex questions, these students showcased their exceptional knowledge and critical thinking skills. In the end, the CCMS team came in fourth. This unforgettable event was a testament to the power of young minds and their ability to conquer any intellectual challenge that comes their way.
