Kaidee Davis was the winner of Mr. Kyzar’s annual 3rd grade March Madness reading bracket! Students competed by answering questions from state practice tests as they prepare for upcoming assessments.
Kaidee stood out not only for her accuracy but also for clearly explaining her thinking, eliminating incorrect answer choices, and referring back to the text.
She earned a well-deserved reward with lunch from Chick-fil-A!
We’re proud of all of these 3rd graders for their hard work and focus as they get ready for testing
