Our 4th graders recently put on SME's first musical! "Silly Sailors! The Saltiest, Smelliest, Super-Silliest Show on the Seven Seas." We had a blast and they did such a good job! We wanted to give a special shout out Eric Hall with Integrated Installations, who provided our sound system to make sure our kids were heard! We are most grateful to you, Mr. Eric! Thank you!

Mrs. Young's class had an egg-citing time in the library today! 🥚📚

After reading The Good Egg and After the Fall, our librarian, Mrs. Norton, teamed up with our second-grade classes to bring stories to life while connecting to their science unit on life cycles. Students worked in groups to design and build creative ways to protect their eggs during an “egg drop” challenge. While not every egg made it, every group walked away with new learning and lots of smiles!
