Contractions to 3rd grade students, Aubrey Samuelson, Mya Morken, Easton Goulding, Gander Golden, and Trecin Meyen for completing the 3rd grade Caldecott Challenge. At the beginning of 3rd grade, all students were challenged to read 75 books that were awarded the Caldecott Medal. These books win for the illustrations in the book. This award has been given to books since 1938. Students are given prizes for every 10 they read. Then at 50 they get their very own Caldecott Book to keep. If they read 75 or more, the 3rd grade teachers take the students out to eat at a place in Ogallala of their choice. The students above earned their dinner out. #CultureOfConfidence
