Special Olympics Track and Field Events at Eastern Illinios University

Some of our Special Olympic Athletes have been getting geared up this week reading books about Special Olympics, playing bingo, and practicing the Special Olympic Oath. One of our kindergarten athletes even received a motivational book made by his classmates. Tomorrow is the big event for our 17 athletes participating in track and field events at Eastern Illinios University.

Cali, Cy and all of their classmates are sending a huge THANK YOU to Monical's of Sullivan for the donation of pizza boxes!!! They donated enough for each student in the entire third grade to have one for the solar oven project!

SMS science students visited SES to help third graders build solar ovens and explain the science behind the project. Pictured are David Rose and Caden Guest assisting Mrs. Harpster's class, and happy 3rd graders with their projects! Fingers crossed for a sunny Friday!

NEHS pen pals visited with Mrs.Hendry’s 4th grade today for our finale!

The start time for the Spring Choir Concert (Children's Choir and Middle School Choir) on April 29th has been pushed back to 7 p.m. in order to allow for middle school track athletes to return from a meet in time to perform.

The 5-2-1-Almost None curriculum was taught by Healthy Kids Educator Ms. Brittney, of SBLHC (pictured above with Mrs. Harpster's third grade class). During the monthly visits, students loved actively participating in interactive lessons that help to promote healthier lifestyles.

First grade has been learning about all different habitats! We have focused on the rain forest and have learned many things ! Mrs. Becker’s class had a great day making animals and plants for the rainforest!

Mrs. Harpster's class has discovered a love for paper mache today! Can you guess what the finished product will be?
