Second Grade Super Spellers of the week! Way to go!
🎉 Good Behavior Pays Off! 🎉
Our amazing 3rd-5th grade Art students earned a special treat this week – "Free Art Class"! 🎨 After completing their Good Behavior Palette Wheel, they got to choose from a variety of fun activities:
🎄 Crafting festive Christmas cards
🧱 Building incredible creations with LEGOs
🧠 Engaging in imaginative play with Play-Doh
🎲 Challenging their friends to exciting board games
They had a blast exploring their creativity and enjoying the fruits of their hard work!
Merry Christmas from the Upper Elementary Crew!!!
We spent our morning in an intense Tic-Tac-Toe Battle, and then wound down this afternoon with gift exchanges and a movie. It was a perfect ending to an awesome semester!
We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas. See you next year!💜🎉
Frida the Elf is saying goodbye to our amazing art students! 😭✨
She set up a special "Kiss Goodbye Booth" today, and it was so sweet to see the students give her a proper farewell. We'll miss her mischievous antics and the festive cheer she brought to our classroom.
The second trial in Judge Dekker's court, Julie Stone v. John Burton occurred on Thursday, with John Burton (Wesley) being acquitted of all charges. Great job by all through both trials. We have some future lawyers roaming the halls of SBHS!
