Katy Perry's @GMA's ROAR contest - Clayton Ridge CSD - #CRCSDeagleROAR









The students of Clayton Ridge show their "ROAR" in response to Katy Perry's @GMA ROAR contest. These two eighth grade students used 21st century skills throughout the process of creating this video. The students attended the Garnavillo City Council meeting to ask permission to spray paint on the former school building that is now city property planned to be torn down. The students then compiled this video as cumulative project for The Outsiders, in addition to the ROAR contest. The showcasing of Eagle Pride united the student body during our homecoming celebration last week. This is a true testament to the power technology has in our classrooms!
