Good morning from your PTC
The Butter Braid Fundraiser was a success!! Thank you so much for your support. In appreciation of the students’ hard work the PTC is going to surprise the students with a Pizza Party at lunch on Tuesday, November 25th. The menu for this day will be pizza, vegetable and fruit, please note this is a surprise and the normal menu says Turkey subs. Please help us keep this as surprise for the students. We are giving parents heads up in case their student doesn’t like pizza they can bring lunch. Once again thank you for all your support.

Our 4th graders put their engineering skills to the test this week with a classic Egg Drop Challenge! Each student was tasked with designing their own protective system to keep a raw egg safe during a fall from ladder height. Working independently, students 🥚 Selected their materials 🥚 Planned and built their designs 🥚 Presented their ideas to the school 🥚 Made predictions about whether their egg would survive the big drop Today, the whole school watched as each design took the plunge! We’re so proud of our young engineers for their hard work, creativity, and problem-solving. Great job, 4th grade!

We had a special visit from Ms. Amanda with the TCHD (Tazewell County Health Department)! She gave our K-2 students an engaging presentation on the importance of good hygiene and handwashing. Using a glow light activity, we got to see just how easily germs can spread and how well (or not so well!) we’re washing our hands. It was a fun and eye-opening lesson that reminded everyone how small actions can make a big difference in keeping our school healthy!
