This year, Paonia Elementary had six students join the prestigious 50+ Club, which represents mastering at least fifty Accelerated Math objectives. These teacher-selected objectives are over and above what is expected in the regular Saxon Math curriculum, aligned with national and state standards, and are based on the grade level the student is working at. It is no surprise that three of these six placed in the top five at the district Math Counts competition. Pictured from left to right are those that accomplished this feat (number of objectives in parenthesis) Jonas Johnson (50),Teagan Figenser (54), Elliana Kuhl (54), Randi Rapke (68), Corbin Beck (89), and Caden Meilner (106).

The following sixth grade students achieved Honors Reader status at Paonia Elementary during the 2011-2012 school year. In order to achieve this distinction, sixth grade students must choose and read over 100 points worth of Accelerated Reader program books from a teacher selected list. These books are all above grade level and include such classics as Little Women, Tarzan of the Apes, Heidi, and King Solomon’s Mines. They must also have read over one million words. Pictured from left to right are Elliana Kuhl, Brooke Hillman, Kassidy Rapke, Randi Rapke, Clayton Campbell, Caden Meilner and Darien Norris.
