The 3rd grade has worked hard the last four weeks on their first ever ISAT tests and are finally done! Students received encouragement from parent letters, peer notes, and, of course, their teachers. Mrs. Wellard, Mrs. Rambo and Mrs. Pfefferkorn sported testing encouragement shirts each test day that helped bring a positive attitude in accomplishing a difficult task. They are so proud of the perseverance, work ethic, and fortitude their students showed in the face of long and daunting assessments. Congratulations, 3rd graders! You did it!
TONIGHT! 7 pm.

The GEMS 6th-8th grade dance was an absolute blast. Thank you, Mr. Stevens, for keeping the party going with awesome music! A big thanks is also due to Mrs. Wheeler, Mrs. Cook, Mrs. Anderson, and Megan McQuillin for chaperoning.
Here's a couple more rocket pictures!
Jessie Brown offered to come in and have a rocket launching party with our class after we studied space for a few weeks. Students each made their rocket, then they were able to test their designs with the launchers. We had some that failed at first, so they had to redesign their concept. Some students' rockets had a spin, which made them shoot off in different directions. They had a lot of fun seeing whose rocket could go furthest and highest. We ended the party with yummy popsicles. It was a great day!
Here are some more pictures of the publishing party!
Mrs. Pfefferkorn's class is officially full of published authors!
We celebrated this exciting milestone with a surprise Publishing Party! The classroom was beautifully decorated, and students received copies of their published book. We enjoyed delicious treats while students proudly read their stories in small groups and to the entire class.
A big thank you to our amazing parent volunteers, Chelsea Torres and Judy Vrieling, for bringing treats and helping make the celebration extra special!
Mrs. Wasem's class looked for animal tracks over Spring Break. Then we shared what we found the week back. Our last activity was to pour plaster molds of animal tracks. This is the class with their plaster tracks. It's always a fun activity.
