Science 8 students made ice cream in class today as they have been learning about melting/freezing points, salt’s impact on water, and energy transfer. It was a messy and delicious day!
Collaborating in our STEAM hub- Spanish III students are creating integrated tourism videos for South American train routes, based around authentic texts and unit vocabulary to highlight culture and travel tips.
Happy Friday! Today started off with a special treat for every student from our secret group of kids ("the tapers") who spread kindness in the building. Later, students in WINN 6 who are studying Greek myths acted in a readers' theater and showed off the mythology trading cards they created. Have a great weekend and stay warm!

MS Week in Review: our 5th graders were "Over the Moon" learning about hyperbole and our 7th graders worked together to calculate tax, tip, and discount in math. The Minecraft Club had a blast at their latest meeting and the Modified Volleyball Team loved seeing Mrs. Wright stop by to cheer them on during their win against Union Springs.
Sophomores in English 10 completed a dynamic three-day Shakespeare residency led by Shake on the Lake (SOTL).
Using their "fun, fast, and physical" method, students staged creative, abridged scenes in a combined performance, reimagining speeches (e.g., Mark Antony's) with themes from the Wild West to Minions. Ms. Czajkowski noted the goal was for students to "better understand the text and themselves through performance."
SOTL is a professional touring company bringing Shakespeare and arts education programs to rural Upstate NY communities. Thank you to the Trumansburg Education Foundation for helping to make this possible!
