Portrait of an Owsley County Learner: Effective Communicator
During 3rd-grade math, students demonstrated what it means to be Effective Communicators! Using the UPS CHECK strategy, students independently solved problems, shared and compared strategies during student-led table talks, and listened to learn from one another.
A special shoutout to Tori, who took the initiative to lead her group's discussion! She made sure everyone understood the task, encouraged classmates to explain their thinking, and helped her peers learn from one another.
Way to go, Tori and classmates, for putting our Portrait of an Owsley County Learner into action!

Portrait in Practice: Responsible Citizen
During math class, Braxtyn noticed a classmate struggling with subtraction. Instead of giving him the answer, he kindly demonstrated how to solve the problem and helped his classmate understand.
Braxtyn showed what it means to be a Responsible Citizen by demonstrating kindness, patience, and a willingness to help others succeed.
Way to go, Braxtyn! You are a great example of our Portrait of an Owsley County Learner!
A big shoutout to our amazing maintenance staff for all their hard work making OCES look so festive for fall!
