Each month, Sullivan Elementary School honors students who go above and beyond expectations by awarding them a "Gold Slip." Below are the Gold Slip winners from the month of October.
From Left to Right:
Nixon Dundee was in the middle of a race during recess when his competitor fell to the ground. Nixon stopped racing and went back to see if the other student was okay. Way to go Nixon!
Bryar Cowger was playing "Around the World" with the class. He was doing very well, as he is a math facts Whiz! After competing against many students and winning, a classmate finally beat Bryar by saying the answer before Bryar did. Bryar calmly sat down since his turn was over, but then reached out to "high five" the girl who beat him. Super sportsmanship, Bryar!
Koda Plumb offered to help another student with his math activity since the other student needed someone to explain the process to him. Koda was patient and helpful.
As her class was headed to the restroom, Paityn Strauf noticed that a student from another room had spilled paint. She offered to clean it up without anyone even asking her to. The hallway was clean as can be when she was done.

This program is shaping up to be a fantastic show under the direction of Mrs. Leach, so don't miss it!
