Hoof Beat: Student News from Ritzville Grade School

Mrs. Ross (the Ritzville School District Counselor) is sitting down with each individual eighth grader to figure and plan out next year’s school schedule.

The required classes are Physical Science, Econ/Geometry, Physical Education, English and Math.

The rest is your choice and it will count as college credits.

The middle school students will take a field trip to Pattison’s Roller Rink in Spokane. All the money was raised from the Walk-a-Thon that was held earlier in the year.

Lunch will be provided (pizza and drinks).

If students want to upgrade to rollerblades, it will be an extra two dollars.

Students need to bring their own money for snacks. No more than $20.

Students will be excused at 8:45 and the bus leaves at 9. We will return at 3 p.m.

Coming up in just two weeks is the annual Ritzville Middle School Lip Sync. For those who are new to this school, Lip Sync is where fifth through eighth graders pick a song and dance to them!

Each grade is its own separate team so it is nice and friendly competition for fifth through eighth. This takes place on the last day of school (June 12) in the Middle School Gymnasium.

It’s how the school says good-bye to the students and staff for the summer.
