When a ZERO is Good!
A group of 4th and 5th-grade students from Ray Crowe Elementary had a fun start to their week. The students, who are part of Club Zero, went to Rascals because they did not receive any discipline referrals throughout the school year. They enjoyed various activities such as playing miniature golf, driving go-karts, and playing games for free thanks to their Warrior Way, points, and a grant. Congratulations to the students!
