We want to extend a huge "thank you" to Harward Farms for their generous donation of a pumpkin for each student here at our school! They made the day a happy one for 601 children! The energy level was buzzing as the truck pulled up, loaded with bright, orange pumpkins! We look forward to using these pumpkins in a variety of learning activities before they head home with their new owners!
Thanks again, Harward Farms!

Miss Hughes and her fifth grade class have been working hard on their projects to present to our student body, teachers and parents. The students each researched a particular region and created visuals to depict details of that region. The students did an excellent job, and enjoyed cake as a celebration. Thanks for all your hard work, Miss Hughes, in helping your students to enjoy learning!
Wednesday afternoon our sixth grade students and faculty members went head-to-head in a flag football game to kick off Fall Break! It has been a tradition for many years and always turns out to be a fun time for all! Our faculty members were the winners in score, but our sixth grade students were the winners in drive and determination! Good job to all!
It is time for our Spanish Oaks BOOK FAIR. Please join us October 20- October 23. The Book Fair hours are 8:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. We will also be open late during our SEP Conferences. It is going to be a monstrous event!
Combine Crazy Hair Day and our weekly Bucket Fillers and we have great pictures for this week! Congratulations to these students who showed care and consideration for others here at Spanish Oaks. We love seeing all of the thoughtful things happening in our school each day.
During the week of October 6-10 we have been filling buckets by participating in Spirit Ribbon Week at Spanish Oaks! Wednesday was our green ribbon day where we focused on being a safe school with our "walk to school" event. Students and faculty were invited to wear GREEN and crazy socks. Everyone strutted their stuff as they danced their way into school. At the end of the day, student safety pledges were drawn and we celebrated with gifts of bike helmets and glow sticks! A special "thank you" to Amber Jones for helping us 'strut
In each of our classrooms the teachers have been keeping track, using our "drops", of all the times their students fill someone's bucket. At the end of September they turned in these totals and the bucket-filling winning class earned a 'thank you' reward activity with Mrs. Brown ... root beer floats! Congratulations to Mrs. Rosenvall's 4th grade class for filling our buckets!
The third grade students at Spanish Oaks enjoyed an awesome autumn field trip last week to the Red Barn. They learned about the process that the farmers go through all year long in order to ensure that there is produce in the Fall. It was a beautiful day for learning!
Bucket filling continued this week at Spanish Oaks ... Keep up the great work, students!
