Dear Red Devil Families,

What an exciting week we have ahead at STC! Our students are looking forward to celebrating Halloween with classroom parties and a parade this week. We can’t wait to see the creativity, smiles, and Halloween spirit throughout our building as our Red Devils enjoy these special traditions with their classmates and teachers!

We also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our families who attended parent/teacher conferences! We truly value the time you take to connect with your child’s teacher, celebrate progress, discuss goals, and work together to support your child’s success. Strong home-school partnerships make such a difference, and we are grateful for your continued support and involvement in your child’s education.

Thank you for helping make STC such a special place to learn and grow. We hope everyone enjoys a fun, safe, and spooktacular Halloween week! ❤️🎃

Yours in Education,

Ms. Amber Galloway
Principal, St. Clairsville Elementary

A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Stacey Brocklehurst and her family for welcoming our STC preschool students to their farm this month! What a wonderful opportunity for our youngest Red Devils to experience farm life firsthand and learn about the animals, the environment, and all the hard work that goes into caring for a farm.

Experiences like these bring learning to life in ways that simply cannot be replicated in a classroom. We are so grateful for the time, generosity, and hospitality the Brocklehurst family shared with our students and staff. Thank you for helping create such a memorable and meaningful learning experience for our preschoolers! ❤️

Mrs. Terlesky’s second graders hit the jackpot! They worked together to earn stars and fill their classroom jar, and their reward was a cozy campout reading adventure! With a flickering campfire glowing on the ViewBoard, our little campers snuggled in and enjoyed some special reading time. Who says you need the great outdoors to have a great camping trip? These Red Devils proved that reading is always an adventure worth celebrating! We’re giving this experience two thumbs up and a big s’more of applause! ❤️🩶

A special thank-you to Mr. Edgar from WesBanco for sharing his time, knowledge, and talent with our fourth-grade students through engaging financial literacy lessons! These valuable experiences help our students begin to understand important real-world concepts such as making smart financial decisions and building responsible money habits. We are grateful for community partners like Mr. Edgar who go above and beyond to invest in our students and help prepare them for a successful future! ❤️🩶

Our staff brought the spooky spirit to life with our Staff Spooky Scene Poster Decorating Contest! 👻

🎃 Teams of six or fewer worked together to create festive, creative, and frightfully fun posters to help celebrate Halloween at St. Clairsville Elementary. We loved seeing our staff’s teamwork, creativity, and Halloween spirit shine through each design!
