Michael Stoner, Avery Davis, Kaylee LeVan, and Lance Baldwin are our student representatives this year. Recently, they helped distribute food at the Lions’ Park Food Bank Distribution Drive Thru.

We look forward to seeing how the projects and volunteer opportunities unfold!
Third graders in Mr. Leichty’s class have been learning about symbolism and how it is used to make a point in a story. This was a fun, team building type of activity where students wore either white or grey to represent different parts of writing. Students in white, for example, represented the symbolism in the story. It was a fun way to break up traditional learning and do something more hands on!

Mr. Henry and the varsity choir performed and recorded a song for Mrs. Ellen Vitt who has been the choir’s beloved accompanist for years. With very little time to practice, they gathered in the atrium of the elementary to take advantage of the best acoustics in the building. They hope, with their message, she is able to feel their love and encouragement as she continues to battle health concerns. Please click the link and enjoy their performance.

It’s the 100th day of school, and the first graders celebrated in style! Each student decorated a shirt with 100 items they love from home. Some used stickers, googley eyes, safety pins, plastic toy bugs, Pom Poms, legos, and shiny gemstones to describe their individuality. This morning, they showcased their hard work in a fashion show emcee’ed by their teacher. We have some very creative students, who were excited to share their 100th day idea! The 100th day of school is a celebrated and anticipated tradition each year. It’s a great way for teachers to celebrate the various math, science and writing concepts that can be taught using the number 100. AND, we made it to day 100 together! Looking good, Little Tigers!
