👏 Last week (Sept. 22–26), our American Sign Language classes celebrated Deaf Awareness Month!
✨ ASL students shared short facts about American Sign Language, Deaf culture, and the Deaf community during morning announcements.
🤟 Students in all four ASL levels also signed the Pledge of Allegiance together, showcasing their learning and respect for this beautiful language.
We are proud to celebrate and honor the traditions, language, and folklore of the Deaf community — an important part of the rich tapestry of American culture. 💙

📚 Ada 6th grade ELA students took a special walking trip to the Ada Public Library this week!
This experience is designed to help break down barriers and connect students with an important community resource. For some of our students—especially those living in rural areas—it can be surprising to learn how close the library is to school.
The goal is for every student to have the opportunity to get a library card and explore after-school programming tailored for their age group. Middle school is a time of growing independence, and this is one more way for students to practice making positive choices on their own.
We are grateful to continue this tradition and can’t wait to see how our students take advantage of all the library has to offer! 🐾

📰💡 Students in Mrs. Salyer’s American Government classes have been diving into Media Literacy this week!
They have been learning how to think critically about the media they consume—recognizing bias, identifying credible sources, and understanding the monetary incentive media companies have to keep audiences engaged. Students also examined how social media algorithms often prioritize content that sparks strong emotions, which can result in sensationalized stories, spin, and even increased polarization.
The classes also discussed the impact of today’s media environment on our democracy and how it shapes public opinion and civic engagement.
👩🎓👨🎓 These conversations are helping students grow into thoughtful, informed citizens who can navigate the complex media landscape with confidence.

🎓✨ Classroom Spotlight: Ada High School ✨🎓
Students in Mr. Ames’ English class didn’t just read poetry today—they experienced it! 📝 Mr. Ames shared that to truly learn rhythm in poetry, it helps to move—put your body in rhythm.
To start, students watched a short video of Michael Jordan and broke down the poem by Hanif Abdurraqib, “It Is Maybe Time to Admit that Michael Jordan Definitely Pushed Off.” From there, they headed outside for a walking practice activity, putting rhythm into motion. 🚶♂️🚶♀️
Hands-on experiences like these make learning both engaging and memorable—way to go, Bulldogs! 💜💛
