Cowboy Bart and Cowboy Brian stopped by last week. They talked about the Will Rogers Memorial and Cowboy Bart even showed us some rope tricks.
They told us about a diorama contest for the Will Rogers Memorial that 3rd graders can participate in. This is a project that they will complete at home. The deadlines are posted below. They need to be student created, but parents are encouraged to help with difficult parts (like using a hot glue gun).
They can choose any aspect of Will Rogers life that they would like to depict. They have learned a lot about him!
It is absolutely NOT mandatory. It’s a really fun project, and the kids always enjoy doing it. They think it’s pretty cool to see their artwork displayed in a museum!
Project pick up at School Monday, February 5th
Voting is through Friday, March 1st
Projects will be delivered back to the school Monday, March 4th
Awards will be given the week of Spring Break.
Friday, March 22nd
Please remind the students to put their name and the school they attend on their project.
Thanks!! 🤠

Our pre-K students are embracing the world of coding through interactive robots. These pint-sized coders use their newfound skills to creatively navigate robots, transforming them into artistic tools that bring their colorful imaginations to life on paper.
Mrs. Hall introduced these students to an app through her Sphero software using her Sphero robots to create these masterpieces!
Their excitement was the cutest!!
They did such a great job and Mrs. Hall can't wait for them to come visit her again in the Innovation Lab. Can you believe these 4 year old are programming robots?!?

As we approach the Martin Luther King holiday, let us remember his words: “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?' ” Volunteering your time, money, or energy to help others not only makes the world a better place, but it also enhances your own life. Here are some benefits of helping others:
✋🏾 Helping others can help you live longer.
✋🏽 Altruism is contagious.
✋🏼 Helping others makes us happy.
✋🏻 Helping others promotes positive behaviors.
✋ Helping others gives us a sense of purpose and satisfaction.
How do you serve others?
