Before the test, Mrs. Pinkerton challenged her Algebra I students with a goal: if every student scored Proficient or Advanced on the ATLAS Algebra I Summative Test, she would treat them to a pizza party.

Well… THEY DID IT! 🎉👏

Every student met the challenge — an incredible accomplishment that reflects their hard work, determination, and commitment to learning.
