EGG DROP EXPERIMENT!! While this super fun activity has the chance of becoming quite a messy disaster, the kids of course LOVE it! Gooey egg yolk and all! The Egg Drop Experiment is an excellent way of encouraging children to use logic, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, making it a highly educational activity. Check out the video that Mrs. Sawyer put together to showcase our 4th graders and their successes and messes! https://youtu.be/ctYzXOBSQ9c

October is Fire Prevention month and we are happy to be able to learn about fire safety from our local fire department crew! Our kindergarten classes were able to visit and tour the fire department last week while our first grade classes received a special visit here at school from a few fireman. 3 valuable lessons were learned: check for working smoke detectors, stay low and yell for help, and clean your room!! If you need more information on fire safety please contact our Beaverton Fire Department. A special thanks to our fire crew for helping to educate our students!

Elementary Families: When we are dismissing students we ask that you remain behind the orange cones or in the grass. Please do not approach the teacher/student lines. This will provide our teachers the amount of time necessary to ensure that all students are correctly dismissed. We want to ensure the highest amount of safety for our students during our dismissal time. Thank you for your cooperation!
