Winners of the middle school's SEL committee orange card breakfast, along with their guests, enjoyed a pancake breakfast. The breakfast was donated by Gabby Rays Diner in Walton! Students receive orange cards for exhibiting certain traits, including kindness, helping others, and good behavior, among others. These cards are entered into a drawing for prizes. The breakfast is a prize presented by the middle school Social Emotional Learning Committee, in collaboration with local restaurants. #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride

Earlier this fall, the small animal care class learned about the history of chickens. They also learned about eggs and their various components throughout this time. They gained knowledge about the process of eggs hatching, and an understanding of critical elements including temperature, humidity, and ventilation that affect eggs and the hatching process. Finally, students had the opportunity to dissect an egg and identify its different parts. #WeAreWalton #WaltonCSD #WaltonPride
