Furthermore, sometimes the nicest, simplest things are the things that need to be said the loudest. Of course, our Badgerdogs work hard year-round to make sure their voices get heard, but what Jose captures in his poem is the drive behind all that wonderful hard work: Fun!

Blackie and Milo

you are so fun
you are soft as a bun
you look like a light
you are always in my sight
you shine like the sun

Jose, fourth grade, Creedmoor Elementary School

I got in the car, and I turned it on and put on the air conditioner. It made my hair flow. I started to drive, and at first I went a little slow, then a little faster.

When I went faster, I rolled down the window. The air outside made my hair go wild like when you sleep on an ant pile.

As I went faster, my hair got crazier than ever. I went so fast I had to drive in a zigzag because of the other cars.

When I came to an empty road, I went faster than a jackrabbit on a rollercoaster.
