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 Mrs. Buxton 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! When you earn 5 stars, you will get your name added to the Mastery Club Board on the wall of the classroom. Learning never ends – thank goodness!
