Today in Ms. Fudge's class, we explored different stations to kick off our next story, "The Monkey’s Paw". Each station focused on a different aspect, from the story’s themes and setting to solving puzzles and even learning about the author’s life.
Excited to dive into this one!

Mr. Nadal’s 6th Grade Science classes got their hands dirty this week—literally! 🪴🥬 They planted “salad gardens” as part of a long-term lab studying soil variations. Science, sunshine, and a sprinkle of salad seeds—sounds like a recipe for learning (and maybe a tasty future harvest)

This Week in Mrs. Bacon's Class: The Candy Corn Challenge!
Day 1: We kicked things off by annotating a nonfiction passage all about Candy Corn! Annotating is an important skill — it helps us dig deeper into what we read and prepares us for high school.
Day 2: Time to plan and strategize! Students worked with their teams to design a Candy Corn Tower — brainstorming and deciding how to make it stand tall and be strong.
Day 3: Build, discuss, build! Students put their plans into action, problem-solving together as they brought their candy corn creations to life.
Day 4: We wrapped up the week with evaluation. Students completed their journal where they wrote about their participation and teamwork throughout the project.
Great job students! What an interesting project!

We had special guests from the Department of Homeland Security who gave our students a presentation on phone and internet safety - a big issue for everyone!
Their special guest, Roscoe the electronics-detection dog, demonstrated his incredible skills by locating hidden electronic devices—including cell phones! 🐾📱
Thank you Homeland Security for sharing important safety information and giving our students a firsthand look at how technology and law enforcement work together to keep our communities safe.

Hidden in Plain Sight! 🦋
Students in Mrs. Newbury and Mrs. Perry's science classes are learning about the world of evolution and adaptation. To get a better understanding of this, they created butterflies that camouflaged with different items around the classroom — showing how animals' ability to blend into their environment can help them survive.
Then principals were challenged to find the hidden butterflies. What a great way to learn about survival skills!

Students in Mr. Nadal's Life Skills class have been hard at work learning valuable life skills — from reading nutrition labels and grocery shopping on a budget to following recipes and even creating their own cookbooks!
This project tied everything together, helping students see how planning, budgeting, and cooking all connect in everyday life.

During 3rd-hour Life Skills class, Coach Wadsworth's students had a special visit from Officer Holmes, who shared an important message about friendships, choices, and leadership. He spoke with students about how friends can influence our paths — and the importance of staying true to yourself, making smart decisions, and choosing the right direction, even when it’s hard.
A big thank-you to Officer Holmes for taking the time to share such an important message with our students!
