Miss Wagaman’s and Miss Russell’s classes planted and tended to lettuce as it grew in the hydroponic garden. Today, we had a harvest party to enjoy all our hard work. Some of our friends even tried some new veggies for the first time!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Thanksgiving meal with Ms. Fink.
On Monday, 5th graders and some third graders were privileged to get to meet Mary Pope Osbourne, the author of The Magic Tree House series. We were not the only ones getting to know her. Students and teachers from around the country joined in for the Meet and Greet. Mrs. Osbourne greeted her audience, shared some information about herself with everyone, read from one of her new books, Windy Night With Wild Horses, and then she answered questions from around the country. I am not sure who was more excited to listen to her read, the teachers or the students!
Friendly reminder that we have our fundraiser event at Hickory Falls this Thursday from 4-8pm. We hope to see you there!
🎵🎶 We hope to see you at our winter concerts! 🎵🎶
We were so excited to make the story Stone Soup come alive in our Kindergarten classrooms. Thank you to all of our families for the generous donations. Reading is amazing AND delicious!

Yesterday, the second grade students had the wonderful opportunity to hear a local author speak and share her book with us. Libby Trostle lives in Littlestown and came to speak to the entire second grade about what it is like to be an author, the writing process, and how she gets ideas for her books. Students had the chance to ask Mrs. Trostle questions when she was done speaking to them and she even gave each student a copy of one of her books, Shining Hope Visits Niagara Falls. We were so excited to hear from a real author and get to ask her questions since writing is such an important part of our second grade curriculum. We are so thankful for the community we live in and the people who are willing to share their talents with us!
Congratulations to Mr. William Laughlin for being recognized as an Outstanding Teacher from the Shippensburg University Study Council!
Happy Veteran's Day from Ms. Kelley's Kindergarten Class.
