Such a great day for a great cause!!! Our annual Gold Walk was amazing….September is childhood cancer awareness month and we are proud to be able to help spread that awareness. Thank you to all those that were a part of this…the students, staff, parents, Genoa City Police Department, Dousman transport, and Kisses From Keegan and Friends! Gold bandanas were donated to all of our students and staff by Kisses from Keegan and Friends….we are still accepting donations to give to them to support local families affected by childhood cancer. Stay tuned for the drone footage coming next week from the police department!!!
Students in Mrs. Erickson's science class are currently learning about different environments, specifically deserts and rainforests. To help them learn they are planting rainforest (closed) and desert (open) terrariums. They will be observing the terrariums and keeping a journal about their observations for the next few weeks.
Picture retake day is Oct 2 for both schools. If your child did not get their picture taken at Open House they will have their picture taken on 10/2. If you need your child to get their picture retaken, E.D. Clark requests you bring the packet back that you got of the Open House proofs and fill out the form on that envelope or get a new envelope from either front office. Picture retakes are free if it is being retaken due to eyes being closed but if they are being retaken for your pleasure there is a cost.

Last week, 5th and 6th grade classes played a team building game called, "Fox and Quail." Students were partnered up -- one was the fox and the other was the quail. The quail had to run and try to pick up food, "bean bags" and bring them back to their side of the grounds; while the foxes tried to pull the flags off the quails belt. The game also had hula hoops that were safe zones for the quails. It was a fun way for our staff to incorporate science into the gameplay: What a predator is and what prey are! The kids had a blast!
Due to anticipated weather conditions this afternoon (and softball field conditions) practice for both cross country and softball is cancelled today.
See you tomorrow at Brookwood for our first softball games of the season!
Make sure to ask your middle schooler how their end of the day went today! #GoMustangs!
