Last Friday, the Kindergarten classes celebrated the 50th day of school with a 50s party! They hula hooped, had root beer floats, had a bubble gum-blowing contest, and danced to many songs!











The 4th grade Halloween party was themed Middle Ages to go along with what the students are learning in ELA. The students were able to try snacks from the Middle Ages, make a stained glass window art project, build a castle with graham crackers, and participate in jousting competitions. The students had a great day!


Students in the elementary school dressed up as their favorite characters today. They celebrated Halloween with activities in their classrooms. Thanks to all of the volunteers for your help!











These students in 4th grade reached their A.R. goal in the first quarter. They each received an ice cream cone at Coffee and Creams in Toledo. Thank you to Coffee and Creams in Toledo for your donation!


In second grade, Ms. Bueker’s class has been reading and writing about a hedgehog. The students completed an art project of a hedgehog to go along with the story. To wrap up the unit, a parent brought in one of the student's pet hedgehogs. It was fun for the class to see a real hedgehog!
