Principal of the Day

Principal of the day, Chase B., greeted students during morning drop-off, held an elementary assembly, took attendance with Ms. Crigler, and met with Ms. Cameron on important school matters.  He used his authority to allow students to wear shorts an extra day and gave them a popsicle party after lunch.  After the fun break was over, it was time for our Principal, along with his Assistant Principals, to tour the school grounds to make sure everything was in order.

Student Supports School

Fourth grade student, Jack L., recently spent some free time working to help his school.  Jack collected sticks from his backyard and turned them into pencils.
He drilled holes in the ends of each stick, sharpened the sticks into pencil shapes, then placed and glued lead into the holes he had drilled.
Jack sold his handmade pencils to his neighbors and donated all the money he collected to the school.

Thanks for your support, Jack!

3rd Grade Geologists

Third graders became geologists in the science lab, preparing for their field trip to the Memphis Rocks Gem and Mineral Show. They examined the rocks and collected data on the hardness and magnetism of a variety of samples, including pyrite and sulfur (which really smelled bad).



2nd Grade Field Trip

Ms. Shaw’s class had a great time on the all school field trip to the Gem and Mineral Show. We also made a stop at the Crystal Grotto inside Memorial Park. This field trip taught us so many things that we were amazed at our knowledge.


Thank you Ms. Uphoff for planning it for us!
