Baker Elementary Word Millionaires!
Our students in 2nd-5th grades rose to the challenge and read over 1,000,000 words this school year! Students received a t-shirt, a certificate, brag tags and were featured on the Baker Broadcast! We set a record this year for the most Word Millionaires!
We also had 7 "Multi-Millionaires" this year!! These students took the challenge to a new level by reading 2 million, 3 million and one student read 4 million words this school year! For going above and beyond these hard-working students received additional prizes!
Baker is ending the school year with a BANG, the bronco way! At our blue carpet event principal, Dr. Essel, awarded teachers and staff with certificates that represent their personalities and strengths as teachers. Some teachers were not pictured but are greatly appreciated!
As a surprise to the teachers and staff, Attorney, @Denese Fletcher at Fletcher Law firm and Interior Designer, @Shawn Norwood with Norwood Design Group donated gift cards to raffle off to the teachers during the ceremony. PCSSD holds special memories in their heart as their mother/grandmother was one of the first African American teachers to teach right here in our feeder pattern at Joe T. Robinson High School. Thank you to both companies for your support. We look forward to a long lasting partnership

Teacher Appreciation Week may have been last week, but we're still on cloud nine from the love and support. We want to give a shout out to those who helped us feel special:
Our teachers were feeling like oh so SWEET superSTARS on Tuesday as they enjoyed donuts from Sugar Llama and coffee from Starbucks!
Baker teachers had a cheese-tastic day on Thursday! As a thank you to the teachers for all of their hard work, Cheesecake On Point donated cheesecakes to all of our teachers.
And we had an amazing WRAP up to the week thanks to Walk-On's Sports Bistreaux. They provided chicken wraps for our teachers on Friday. They were delicious!
