Garfield School's counselor, Mrs. Balogh, has been popping up all over the school lately... in Bitmoji form! She challenged our students to a scavenger hunt with an important message: "Make Smart Choices." Students had to keep their eyes peeled to find the specific Bitmojis that were "a little different" from the rest. The sharp-eyed detectives who found them earned some well-deserved Rocky Bucks to spend at the school store!
