We enjoyed a whole bunch of fun and engaging winter-themed activities this week. Everyone had a chance to try something new and socialize with their peers throughout the day. This tradition started out as a suggestion from one of our student council members three years ago and has become a popular annual celebration.
Ugly sweaters have become very popular over the past few years. While wearing one for spirit day is very typical, creating one for a contest is a whole different story. Our oldest students were challenged to design an ugly sweater and write an ad that would persuade people to buy it. They were very excited about this fun activity and they got very creative.
Our students enjoy participating in a variety of sports activities throughout the year. Exercise is an important part of the weekly schedule and we provide many opportunities for everyone to get moving as often as possible.
Our winter concert left everyone feeling excited for the holidays. The assortment of classic and modern songs was perfectly arranged and kept the audience entertained. Our soloists and chorus all did their best and had everyone singing along.
It’s been great seeing our friends from the PAWS in Hand program again this year! These special volunteer handlers have been providing our students with the opportunity to meet and work with dogs for several years now. This activity benefits our students as well as the pups and is very popular among all age groups.
Students enjoyed making and selling beautiful cards, trees, gift tags, ornaments, and more. Shoppers were impressed by the variety of unique gifts that were available right in time for the holidays! From start to finish, it was a great experience for everyone involved.
Weekly clubs provide everyone the chance to try something new. Different activities are offered so that students have time to socialize and have fun after working all week.
Students were recognized for the accomplishments they made during the first marking period. They received awards for academics, specials, and showing kindness towards others. We are proud of the award recipients and encourage everyone to keep reaching for their goals!
In art class, students recently learned about Pop art and advertising. They enjoyed creating colorful packaging for popular snacks and drinks.
We enjoyed a day of wholesome fun at our 2021 Fall Fest. Pumpkin carving was a big hit and team-building games were a lot of fun. A traditional mummy wrap challenge morphed as four people were wrapped simultaneously around a pole by a bunch of their eager peers. Corn hole and minute-to-win-it games were very popular throughout the day but the human hungry hungry hippo game stole the show and gave us quite a bit to laugh about. We were thankful to have beautiful weather for this special event.
