Mastery Club

Alcova's Home Page

A club for students interested in achieving!

Special thanks to Mrs. Renz of Redmond, Oregon for creating and letting us use this idea!

This is a club for students who are interested in achieving "above and beyond" the normal classroom expectations. All you have to do is learn all about the topic, and then come tell Ms. Eadie the answers during your recess or lunch break, or before or after school. You can become a 1 star member, all the way up to an 84 star member!
