It’s going to be a “red carpet” treatment for elementary school scholars thanking them for their successes in school from the third through the eighth grade.

Next Friday, Oct. 11, Colony Oak School will send its “Super STAR” test performers to a lunch at Pizza Plus in a stretch limousine. The group will leave from a special 9 a.m. assembly at the school.

The interactive music assembly will feature “Drums not Drugs,” by David Baylard.  A step team is also coming from North Stockton will also perform. 

Shortly before noon, students with advanced and perfect on the 2013 STAR test will be picked up in waves for lunch.

“I wanted to make sure we fulfilled our word to the students,” Principal Marlon Gayle said.  “Some 70 students will be taking part in this celebration of academic achievement.”

Teachers are being provided with a list of student group departure times, Gayle said.

Students will arrive at Pizza Plus in style. The limo will feature fiber optic lighting, CD, DVD, HD radio, digital controls, a flat-screen TV, climate control, air-ride suspension and complimentary soft drinks.

“It’s the best for our students,”  Gayle said.
