*Student-created Xtranormal videos can be found here! Our newest entry was created by Juliana Tedeschi!

*Stay tuned for some news from Moe's Cafe, as well as some really strange bus rides.

*I, Mr. Day, humbly bequeath my WordMasters crown, which I have worn all year as no students have scored higher than me on our analogies challenge, to MIKAYLA ZEITLIN, who tied me on our last challenge. Go forward proudly, Mikayla, and spread your vast vocabulary among all who will listen!
