Teachers dressed like students? Students dressed like teachers? Why not! Spanish Oaks looked a little mixed-up today as the faculty dressed like the students, and visa versa. Ryan Carter, fifth grade, did his best to look like Mrs. Carter, our secretary. Our librarian had her daughter dress her. Perfect! Check out our 6th grade girls being Mrs. Anderson! What a fun day ... thanks for participating!
A special thanks to our fourth grade teacher, Mrs. Rosenvall, for her fun bulletin board idea. She created a school graph with the universities that staff and faculty have received degrees from, encouraging each of our students to attend college, as well. You rock, Mrs. Rosenvall ... and so does school!
Miss Hughes' Class wrote and performed skits about social injustices that have occurred throughout American history. They protested by making signs and shouting chants. What a neat way to learn!
Let's get ready for first grade!! Our kindergarteners enjoyed eating lunch for the first time in the lunch room and had a great time! They practiced saying their complete name to Mrs. Slaymaker, our wonderful lunch lady.
Mark your calendars for our second annual "Fun Run" Fund Raiser: 5K Race and "Fun (1 mile) Run". A $15.00 donation purchases entry into the race (1 mile / 5K), along with an awesome t-shirt.
Heidi Dimmick has spent the past 5 years teaching preschool out of her home while raising her kids. Prior to teaching preschool, Heidi taught both Kindergarten and 1st grade at Westside Elementary for three years before transferring to Riverview Elementary, when it opened. At Riverview, Mrs. Dimmick was a kindergarten teacher for 2 years. Now that her youngest is attending kindergarten, Mrs. Dimmick is back to teaching in elementary school, in 3rd grade this time.
Our fourth grade celebrated months of great behavior from their students by throwing them a Hogwarts Feast. Hufflepuff House were the winners, with the most points awarded overall. A great time was had by all!
What a great day for Kindergarten! They presented an amazing program to their parents, then took part in a parade of cars through the hallways of our school. The students and their parents created some awesome cars! The students were then able to travel "across America" to learn about our national symbols. Well done, Kindergarten students!
