At Dwight Elementary, students can earn Cyclone Success Tickets when they demonstrate being safe, respectful, and responsible at school. Every Monday morning, one winner is drawn from each grade level. The winners get to choose a reward from Mrs. Malin's prize board. Here are this week's winners! Today Ava chose to chew gum in class. Luci and Cory chose a "Bring a Toy to School" ticket. Ada and Karly chose to sit in one of Mrs. Malin's rolling chairs for the day. We are proud of these Lil Cyclones and all of our other students who are demonstrating The Cyclone Way! #smallschoolbigheart #OneRSD
