The Daughters of the King group met this morning & reflected on Isaiah 40:29-31 & how this passage shows that even when we may be tired & weary, those who hope in the Lord will be renewed. We can reflect on giving our best in school, with friends, & at home, knowing that God sees our efforts & gives us strength.

Shoutout to our Basket Raffle winner, Lincoln, who traded his textbooks for a broom & a dolly as our official Custodian for the Day!
He worked hard alongside Mr. Hessman, helping haul furniture &office supplies, scaling the ladder to check the roof 😲, & updating our outdoor school sign! He earned that celebratory pizza lunch! 🎉

Mr. Baresel's 7th grade social studies classes experienced the frustration of the British taxes of the 1760s firsthand today! They experienced "The King's Starbursts." They had a "King" & "Parliament" who taxed the clothing items they were wearing, with the cost paid in Starbursts. The catch? They had no say in making the tax laws. This hands-on lesson perfectly illustrated the principle of "no taxation without representation," showing them exactly why the colonists got so angry & sparking the drive toward the American Revolution!

One of our 3rd graders, James, knocked it out of the park! He served as PE Teacher for the day! He won this privilege at our annual basket raffle fundraiser. James led and played wiffle ball with 6th - 8th graders and flag football with his 3rd grade classmates. Way to go, James!

Ms. Nimrick's 2nd grade is a busy place! Students used their skills to tackle the Math concept of place value. The students moved effortlessly between small group instruction, digital math practice and partner work with leadership assignments. One lucky duck was spotted "doing the right thing" and will receive a shout out at the end of the day! Ms. Nimrick also tracks positive behavior by tallying classroom instances of following procedures. If the teacher prompts are less than their tallies of following procedures, the whole classroom is celebrated! What an encouraging classroom that balances rigor and engagement with a routine environment.

Mr. Baresel earned a shout out from a student in his 8th grade social studies class.
Orthodontic Group holds a contest called "Too Cool for School" and Mr. B received the following comments: My favorite thing about Mr. B is he really helps us when we are learning. He has a great approach when teaching, like"this day in history" where we learn about something that happened on a certain day in history. He also makes his classes really fun and that is why he is my favorite teacher.
Way to go Mr. Baresel, thank you for connecting with our students.

Happy All Saints' Day!
Almighty ever-living God, by whose gift we venerate in one celebration the merits of all the Saints, bestow on us, we pray, through the prayers of so many intercessors, an abundance of the reconciliation with you for which we earnestly long. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever.

Mr. Baresel's 6th Grade Social Studies class dove deep into ancient Egyptian culture by recreating the mummification process! Students paired up & used materials like toilet paper to carefully wrap their classmates, gaining an incredible hands-on understanding of this historical practice. The class got wrapped up in the history of Egypt!
