Field Trips & School Fees

We are looking forward to our kindergarten and second grade field trips coming up in the next few weeks (see more details below)! As we near the end of the school year, we kindly ask families to check if their child has any outstanding school fees. Please note that action must be taken on unpaid fees in order for your child to participate in end-of-year activities, including dances, field trips/camps and field days. To view your balance and make a payment, please visit our fees web page. Secretaries are also available to assist families in creating a payment schedule if needed.

Our recent journey through the Wonders Reading Program led us to a story called A Bird Named Fern. In the book, Fern is a curious bird who mistakenly thinks clouds are fluffy white beds—only to be surprised when she falls right through them!

Fern’s confusion sparked a wave of curiosity in our classroom. Students began asking: What are clouds actually made of? Why do they turn gray? Why do they change shape?

To find out, we put on our scientist hats. Working collaboratively, students built their own "rain clouds" to see the process in action. We learned that clouds are clusters of water droplets, and when those droplets get too heavy, gravity takes over and it rains! Students made hypotheses about how many drops their clouds could hold before "bursting," then recorded their results with great excitement.

This week in Miss Welsh's and Mrs. Crum’s Kindergarten class, we continued building our opinion writing skills. We have been learning that opinion writing is a way to share how we personally feel about a topic, and that each piece of writing is unique and special.

As a class, we discussed how we all have different opinions about the spring season. The students wrote about whether they like or do not like spring and explained why. They made real-life connections by thinking about what they enjoy or dislike during this time of year. Some shared that they enjoy spring because of the rainy and warm weather, while others wrote about playing outside and spending time in nature.

The students did a great job of using their phonics knowledge and early grammar skills to sound out words and write complete sentences. This activity gave us a glimpse into their individual opinions and creativity. We are so proud of all the amazing growth and effort they continue to show in kindergarten!

We are proud to announce the March Students of the Month. These student were selected by their teachers for going above and beyond when showing cooperation. Way to go! We are so proud of you!

Alice Feldmann, Kindergarten Teacher

School Year Superlative: Most likely to have a paper copy

Phrase or motto I share with students: Good readers are good thinkers, and good thinkers are good readers!

Go to drink or snack at school: Coffee, coffee, and MORE coffee

Favorite tradition, lesson or activity with students: Singing the ZYX's and other silly rhythm songs, Operation Gingerbread in December, the Iditarod in March, and learning to play chess.

I hope my students remember: I want them to remember I taught them that laughter is golden, that it is okay to make mistakes, and to always help others.

Being a Middie means: A "Middie" means different things to different people. I used to think my role as a Middie was to teach my students the best I knew how and to connect with their families. I still believe that-- but also now believe it is so much more. Being a Middie is working to connect with others, AND allowing others to connect with you. My students, their families, and my colleagues have encouraged me! I have been forever changed by the outpouring of love and support I recieved in my greatest time of need. Being a Middie is showing up for one another in both the good and bad. It is giving of self-- and allowing others to give to you.

Theresa Wise, Library Paraprofessional

School Year Superlative: Most Likely to misplace my FOB :)

Phrase or motto I share with students: A rule that I have in the library is we are kind to our books because we share them!

Favorite tradition, lesson or activity with students: Mystery bookmark day!

I hope my students remember: That I helped them find books they love!

Being a Middie means: Being a part of a community, taking pride in what you do!
