Their achievements reflect our commitment to empowering excellence and fostering leadership in our community. Congratulations to these remarkable individuals! #SwarmTogether
Today, our 6th graders embraced engaging opportunities to prepare for their upcoming math test. By solving problems around the room, they are not only becoming proficient in calculating the area of triangles, trapezoids, and parallelograms but also mastering volume concepts. This hands-on approach empowers excellence and fosters an environment of engaged problem solvers. #SwarmTogether
Third graders continued their weather work by constructing snow plows out of legos and Edison robots in STEAM lab. The challenge was to clear snow (plastic cups) from a parking lot in as few passes as possible. Many teams revised until their plows could get all the snow in one pass!
Our PTO Read-a-Thon will officially kick-off next Friday! Get your child registered today and help us reach our goal to raise funds for elementary field trips.

4th graders made their reading come alive! After reading about the settling of JamesTown, they created dioramas of what they pictured it looking like in 1610.
Fifth graders created models of Earth's orbit around the sun using sphero mini robots. It proved to be quite tricky coding the "Earth" to get to each season!
Dear North Families,
I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day and enjoy the snow this weekend!

4th graders traveled to South School to join 2nd graders for a STEAM lesson on erosion. It was a great experience for all of the students! We saw a lot of smiles and laughter as they were learning and talking about erosion! A huge Thank You to Mrs. Hindbaugh-Marr for arranging this experience!
Teamwork in action! On Monday, Ms. Foglesong's 6th graders joined forces with Kindergarteners for a fun STEAM project! They investigated if a sled travels faster when heavier or lighter. Together, they engaged in problem-solving and built positive relationships. Thanks to Mrs. H-Marr and our school bus transportation for making this trip possible! #SwarmTogether
