According to research, email is the preferred communication tool in the business world, and students at Claxton High School are learning to use this means of conversation effectively. CTAE teachers presented a common lesson on this topic to help students understand the parts of an email, what to include in the message, appropriate tone, and the importance of an error free message. This skill will serve students for a lifetime. #TheDEN

Students in Ms. Johnson's Art classes are learning how to be art critics. Students had to look at other students' artwork and critique how the artwork looked and made them feel. The students discussed with each other the different things that they liked and disliked about the artwork. The students did not critique their own class's artwork; they critiqued another class's artwork. This gave our students a chance to practice giving constructive criticism in a kind way. #4Cs #RoarANDSoar
