And the theme for the 2023-24 school year is...Be the One.
This theme comes from the quote, "Be the one who nurtures and builds. Be the one who has an understanding and a forgiving heart, one who looks for the best in people. Leave people better than you found them”

It is in 4th-grade science class that our students get to learn more about the different habitats; how they are formed, their differences, and the species that live there. In these lessons, they get to dig deep into the different types of birds and each student gets a chance to pick 1 bird to learn more about. To make the lesson extra special, Dr. Bookhamer uses his magical skills with the 3-D printer and makes replicas of these birds. Dr. Bookhamer made 156 3-D birds!

As an end-of-the-year project, our 3rd-grade ELA teachers and our librarian work with all of our 3rd-grade students to create a Wax Museum. Each student is responsible for researching someone of significance (past or present), completing a display board that tells about the lives of their person, and then memorizing any pertinent information about this person. On Wax Museum Day, family members come and the students stand as wax figurines until they are approached. They then come to life, reciting the life information they have memorized.
As you can see, we have a wide range of characters, from Wayne Gretzky to Michael Jackson and Andy Warhol.
Pre-AP Biology students, Robert Chevalier, Caiden Hermann, Katherine Granger, and Gabe Farkas, demonstrate their skill in bacterial transformation by inserting a gene for Green Fluorescent Protein into bacteria cells.

Every year the 1st graders have a farm week. They get a chance to learn all about farm animals! They also get to participate in the Penn State Embryology program. They successfully hatched 4 baby Leghorn chicks. The students loved watching them hatch and grow! They also got to meet and pet Mrs. Farrar's baby goat, Lucy. The best part came on Friday when Dr. Horn brought in Cooper the mini horse for the kids to feed and pet! By far the best week ever in 1st grade!
