It's Countdown at Polk Elementary School.

Friday is the last day of school but it's also the last day for Polk Elementary. Pleasant Valley School District is shutting down the school, due to declining enrollment.So, Polk decided to go out with a "Bang!" Every day of this last week will feature some kind of special event with a theme of "Blast Off to Next Year.""We want all our students to feel excited about the move to Pleasant Valley Elementary next year," says Erica Greer, Polk's principal.Monday was Positive Behavior System Building Wide Reward All Day.Polk earned 70 Bear PAWs for great behavior. PAWS stands for P-Prepare to Learn; A-Always Be Respectful; W-Winning Choice; S-Safety First.The students were rewarded with a visit from Cosmic Adventures Traveling Planetarium. The huge blow-up bubble tent was set up in the gym and could accommodate several classes and introduced students to a "night" of looking at the stars and planets.Students made several space-themed crafts of rocket ships, alien masks, UFOs and a picture of a constellation. They played space-theme games and enjoyed "Rocket Ship" popsicles, thanks to the PTO."It's all instructional but fun," says Greer.
