2nd Grade Gingerbread Houses

Submitted by elyssa.marzan on

What a messy, yet deliciously pleasurable way to end the fun-filled Holiday Week at school.  2nd Graders got to make their "dream" gingerbread house and also maybe enjoyed a building supply or two as they built them.  We would like to thank all of the parent volunteers who helped supply the candy, sorted it, and glued the houses together to help make the job a lot easier for the teachers and the students to put their masterpieces together.

Multiplication and Division Rockstars!

Submitted by elyssa.marzan on

All of their hard work has finally paid off!  4th grade has been working hard each day to pass of their multiplication and division facts,  It's tough to get them all memorized and recite them or write them down, espeically if they're being timed which turns up the pressure.  Congratulations to these 4th grade students who have finally been able to pass each and everyone of them off! It was hard work, but they kept at it until they were able to SOAR through them.

Falcon Club Winners

Submitted by angela.stoddard on

Our Falcons are making so many good choices this month! We have filled up our Falcon Club 100s Board three times this month! Our students who earn a Brag Note get their name on our Falcon Board located at the front of the school. When we fill our board up we hold a drawing and several students win the opportunity to come down for a party. This month we have had fun playing games in the gym and playing some Christmas Bingo. Keep up the hard work, kindness, and leadership Falcons!
