🌟 Ms. Lawson's 2nd graders are working on their final math unit of the year, telling time! ⏰
Her students had a blast learning to tell time to the nearest five minutes, crafting clocks showing quarter past, half past, and quarter to. And to wrap it up in style, they created a "Time for Summer" bulletin board, filled with sunshine, sunglasses, beach balls, and ice cream, each representing their favorite time of summer.
What a fun and creative way to learn and get ready for summer! 🎉
On May 21st, we held our Spring concert for our talented 2nd to 8th Graders, but amidst the melodies, we bid a heartfelt farewell to Ms. Sanford, marking her final concert after an astounding 30 years of service to our district. 👏 We thank her for nurturing countless young musicians and leaving an everlasting impact on our community. 🎵
Another night filled with music is coming tomorrow night, June 5, as the young musicians in our High School Band and Varsity Chorus will come together for our 9-12 Spring Concert. Be sure to join us in the Nunda Auditorium at 6:30 PM for another musical night!
Our Pre-K classes recently had an amazing adventure at the Backyard Barnyard!
