Strange though it seemed, a class of fifth-graders at Jefferson Lighthouse Elementary School, 1722 West Sixth St., were boisterous and ecstatic about their progress in a computer program called First in Math Thursday afternoon. And they were well within their rights to be ecstatic. Of all classes in the state using the program this year, Room 215 at Jefferson Lighthouse ranked first in Wisconsin and 22nd in the country, according to their teacher, Jim Moes. “I believe and this district believes that (the program) does help on assessments,” he said. Basically, it’s a supplemental math program that really works in my opinion.”
