The Ione Elementary
School hosted an assem-
bly on Thursday, Jan. 26,
celebrating achievements
during the second quarter
of school.
During the assembly
students were awarded for
various accomplishments
including perfect atten-

hibiting a selected character
trait. The character trait
on which the elementary

second quarter of school
was caring. Earning a char-
acter trait award means that
these students demonstrated
caring throughout the quar-
ter. The staff members at
Ione Elementary School
say they are very proud of
the level of character that
these students have shown.
The recipients of this
