We recently adopted a female parakeet. We love little Olivia, the name chosen by the students today in our community meeting. The top four favorite names were Strawberry, Blueberry, Olivia and Turquoise. Olivia won by a strong majority.
We can always use romaine lettuce to give fresh food to Olivia in addition to her bird seed.
The students also discussed the loss of our dearest pet, Marshmallow and how they felt. They expressed the desire to get a new guinea pig, however we are waiting to arrive at the final decision on that. The decision will be based on the students' research at home and drumming up financial support to purchase a better cage, food, appropriate water bottle, toys and supplies. The students also realize they need to do more research at home to learn how to keep a guinea pig happy and healthy. We have a big responsibility to care for an animal in captivity. We will gather this information at our next community meeting after Thanksgiving.
Angelica did an awesome job of leading her first meeting as the new class President for the second trimester. She had strong support from Vice President Emily and Secretary Abby. All applicants gave short speeches last week. Students voted by private ballot.
