Middle School Guest Speaker

Mr. Walt Fisher, a new board member of The Bodine School, was a guest speaker for the Middle School. He brought two different working steam engines and a demo steam turbine. Students and teachers enjoyed these working models!

4th Grade is Flying, Flying, Flying, Flying!!

Warning: Don't try this at home!

Only a short time after going to see the play Peter Pan, fourth grade students got a taste of what it's like to be able to fly! All were thinking happy thoughts, and, sure enough, up, up, and away they flew! Ms. Uphoff proved, once again, she really does have magical powers... and perhaps a secret stash of fairy dust!

Bulldog Wall

School spirit is soaring! Thanks to the incredible artistic talents of our art teacher, Lori Wakefield, we now have a constant display of that spirit and pride that lies within each of us. Ms. Wakefield spent many meticulous hours hand painting an 8 ft. version of our bulldog mascot on the wall in the multi-purpose room. What a beautiful addition to our school! Thank you, Ms. Wakefield!

1st & 2nd Grades' Science Lab

First and second graders had a “hair raising” experience in Science Lab today working with electricity. They put their hands on the electric ball to see if their hair stood on end. 4th grade teacher Ms. Lee joined in the fun and showed us a “hair raising” fun time.

4th Grade Box Top Party

On Friday, Nov. 7th, Ms. Adam’s Fourth Grade class celebrated their big win in the BoxTop for Education fall contest. Ms. Adams’ class brought in the most BoxTops per student during the fall contest that ran from August through October. These guys brought in 465 BoxTops! To celebrate, the class was treated to a movie, popcorn, candy, and soda. The guys really enjoyed watching Speed Racer, munching on their treats, and getting out of a bit of class time.
