Former Bacon Chorus Teacher, Cheryl Horsey's new ramp

 Bacon Bears,

We all dusted off our brains, and had an excellent return to school this week. The 3rd, 4th, 5th graders had Mock NJASK Testing. The culminating event for the "Mock" testing was an Awards Ceremony highlighting the accomplishments of the 2011 NJASK, and encouraging those who will be taking the 2012 NJASK.
