Unexpected Outcomes

At Chets Creek, we work towards creating a high quality student that will become a lifelong leader.  We want our learners to be community contributors, collaborative workers, complex thinkers, quality producers, effective communicators, and self-directed learners.

Last week, a few of Mrs. Nash's readers took a risk in order to contribute to their classroom and school community.  These two girls ran with their creative idea to set up a lemonade stand in their neighborhood to raise money to help fund our Nook project.  They raised about $14, which is only a fraction of the money we need.  But, these girls understand that if we all raised $14....well, I'll let you figure that out, dear mathematician-readers.  If 41 students raised $14 each, how much money would we raise to put towards our Nook project?


Thanks, girls, for being self-directed, community contributors.
