March is Music In Our Schools Month! Throughout the month we are excited to share about our musical students and staff. Meet sixth grader Andrew DeRuyter, who sings in the chorus and plays in the band. Andrew was one of many students who were selected to perform in the All County Festival on March 2, 2024. The guest conductor selected Andrew to perform a vocal solo in one of the songs they performed at the festival. He is pictured here with his vocal music teacher Miss Kathleen Dessert. Congratulations Andrew!

Wear your favorite hat or if you have a Dr. Seuss hat, wear it!
We know that technology has radically changed what is taught in schools today. However, there are some skills that technology advances have not changed at all.
The role of becoming a new parent is the lesson Mrs. Julie Savage is currently teaching her seventh grade Family and Consumer Science classes.
The early childhood unit provided a hands-on lesson in caring for an infant using dolls. Students learned how to properly hold, feed, burp and diaper an infant.
These skills were familiar to some students who have younger siblings, but for others it was the first time they had held a baby.
Registration for Universal Pre-kindergarten is now open. Registrations will be accepted until March 18, 2024.
