What: STEAM literacy night & Book Fair
When: Tuesday, March 24, 4-6 pm
Where: old big gym
Why: Foster critical thinking, creativity and problem solving through hands-on activities that integrate science, technology, engineering, art and math
The STEAM book fair and activities will be held concurrently that night for families to shop and students to participate. We will have food trucks on site as well as our SHS Baseball vs. Converse game at 4:00 pm.
There is no cost to participate in the hands-on STEAM activities.



Students showed their school spirit all week long with themed days including Mixed Up Monday, Top Hat Tuesday, Wacky Socks Wednesday, Theodore Day (dress like your favorite Dr. Seuss character) on Thursday, and Funny Food Friday where students wore green!
Mrs. Ward's class celebrated their last Dr Suess day with cooking green eggs and ham! They discussed everything from how a baby chick grows, tools used to cook, made predictions, gave lots of adjectives to describe the Dr Seuss eggs, and had a lot of fun tasting them!
From silly socks to creative costumes, our hallways were full of imagination, laughter, and a love for reading. We had a wonderful time celebrating books and encouraging our students to keep turning those pages! 📖✨
