Last week, Mr. Summer's year 3students stepped into the courtroom to put "The Yellow Wallpaper" on trial! 🧠🗣️ Was the narrator truly unstable, or was she a victim of medical and societal neglect? Teams argued passionately for and against institutionalization, citing evidence, historical context, and modern mental health insights. Thought-provoking, dramatic, and full of literary fire! 🔥👏 #MockTrial #TheYellowWallpaper #LiteratureInAction #StudentVoices #CriticalThinking #EngagedLearning

We wanted to take this time on National Principals' Day to thank our own Mrs. Anna Austin. Both teachers and students know that her door is rarely closed and all are welcomed to talk with her about problems big and small! We are so thankful for her and all she does for our school! @buncombecountyschools
