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!
Library classes this week enjoyed the traditional poem, "Twas the Night Before Christmas" by Clement C Moore , and made some delicious reindeer.
Merry Christmas from the Second Grade!
3rd graders enjoyed their afternoon watching The Polar Express and decorating cookies! 🍪🚂

Christmas came a little early for 4th Grade today!!
This fall the 4th Grade ELA Class spent some time being authors and illustrators as they worked to publish their very first book, and today they got to bring them home!!
The class chose an overall theme of, Ocean Animals. Then they each chose a specific sea animal as their main character, and wrote an imaginative story about them. These kids spent time brainstorming, writing, rewriting, editing, proofreading, and perfecting their work. They were able to create an illustration to go with it, too; and when completed we shipped it off for publishing.
They were so excited to receive their books today! Hard work pays off and these books are top notch! The kids were able to showcase their interests and challenge themselves with this one, and it proved to be a project they all loved! I'm so proud of them and hope it is a keepsake they cherish forever!
If you know a 4th Grader, ask them to share their book with you! If you don't, swing by the Sully Area Library to view the newest book to hit the shelves!🥰
Race day was a great success in physical science! Congrats to Louie and Jane for being the race champions with a top speed of 2.45 m/s! Tomorrow's test will be to protect the precious egg cargo!

Frosty's hat ran out of magic! Third graders had a blast building snowmen out of baking soda. They then used vinegar the next day to create a chemical reaction and melt their snowman.
