The staff members at the Middle School are always up for some fun and a challenge. This week they played a day long game of Human Scrabble. Each teacher had a different set of letters that they wore throughout the day. The challenge was that they had to make words with the other staff members as they met them throughout the day!
Prizes were awards to the top point earners.
Our students love to see their teachers and the enthusiasm and competitive edge that comes out in the school day.

What do you see when you look underwater?
The 5th graders have been working on an art project showing what you would see if you looked underwater. The students had the option to draw or paint what they would see. Some students showed what it would look like in the ocean, while others picked what you would see if you looked in a lake.
It is great to see how creative and talented our students are.

The 6th graders focused on an activity this week that practiced Habit 6: Synergize, from the book, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People," by Stephen Covey.
Students had to see which group could work together to build the tallest “Leaning Tower of Feetza.” The tallest tower was 72 centimeters tall!
Throughout the year, our students continue to learn more about the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and apply the habits to everyday situations.

Our High School Students have an option to take Community Service as a class for some of the year. These students can pick different areas in the community to do this class.
Many students choose to help out at the Elementary and Middle School during this class. Some of the tasks the students help out with include helping our teachers prep class materials, work with students on homework and skills or just have a few minutes to hang out and form relationships with underclassmen.

8th Graders presented their Science Fair Projects last night to the judges and public to be evaluated.
Many weeks ago, students came up with a hypothesis and spent weeks testing, recording and evaluating their hypothesis.
Once students were done with their testing and recording, they created a science report in the form of a board to display and explain their findings.
Great job 8th grade!
