A + : New Bremen guinea fowl

FROM ROCKS, WE MOVE TO SOMEONE WHO ROCKS – IT’S TIME TO ANNOUNCE OUR A PLUS. [PHOTO] BUT WAIT – WHAT’S THAT? OUR A PLUS HAS GONE TO THE BIRDS!

THIS WEEK, NEWSCAT SENT US A TIP FROM HER FRIENDS IN MRS. STEINKE'S FIFTH GRADE CLASSES AT NEW BREMEN MIDDLE SCHOOL. THEY TELL US THAT A GUINEA FOWL HAS BEEN ROAMING THEIR TOWN FOR WEEKS. ACCORDING TO THEM, THEIR FEATHERED FRIEND SHOWED UP RIGHT IN TIME FOR THANKSGIVING AND HAS BEEN TAKING SHELTER AROUND THEIR SCHOOL. THE NEW BREMEN FOWL HAS PERCHED ON TEACHER'S CARS, AND EVEN CHASED STUDENTS AS THEY WALKED HOME FROM SCHOOL.

THE CLASS WRITES: “MAYBE WE NEED TO CHANGE OUR MASCOT FROM THE NEW BREMEN CARDINALS TO THE NEW BREMEN GUINEA.”
FOR BRINGING SOME EXCITEMENT INTO THE LIVES OF OUR FRIENDS AT NEW BREMEN, THIS GUINEA FOWL GETS A NEWSCAT-ENDORSED A PLUS.
