Promotes Healthy Living At
Davis Creek Elementary
Welcome Ms. Tooth!
Cabell Midland High School's Eagles' Nest Program visits Davis Creek Elementary each Thursday to present a lesson. The lessons are well planned and delivered by dedicated high school students that want to make a difference in the lives and futures of fourth and fifth grade students. Ms. Dixie Billheimer and Mr. John Hogg spend time in and out of class getting information, resources, financial support, and attending wrokshops so that the CMHS students have a large variety of lesson preparation material to use. Without this dedication from the two teachers Eagles' Nest would not be the wonderful, fulfilling program that we see each Thursday. The Eagles' Nest lessons range from "Just Say No" messages concerning drug use, study habits, friendship, team cooperation, responsibility, "Say No To Smoking", volunteerism, to "Healthy Living". Each lesson is eagerly awaited by the Davis Creek Elementary fifth grade class in Mrs. Simon's classroom.
Eagles' Nest Gang!
Beth Patten, Ashley France, Andy Dickson, Sarah Templeton, & Susan Patrick
It is 10:00AM Thursday morning and Mrs. Simon's fifth grade is eager to see CMHS Eagles' Nest students come in the classroom. As Andy Dickson, Beth Patten, Sarah Templeton, Susan Patrick, and Ashley France file into the room the students rustle with anticipation. This week's lesson is about "Healthy Living". Each of the fifth grade students listen attentively to the information presented since these high school students are the people that they aspire to emulate in the near future. Opinions and informtion delivered is given high priority by these ten year old students. Today there is a "surprise" guest. "Ms. Tooth" walks into the classroom, resplendent in glowing, white health from taking advantage of all the healthy living rules.
