The first week of summer, Spanish Oaks students enjoyed our SCIENCE EXTRA Explorer Summer Camp ... Loose in the Lab! Interested students met for 3 days, learning from teachers and parents ... They kept a science journal, learned to use the scientific method, and conducted hands-on experiments. Thank you to Mrs. Aagard, Mr. Meeks, and our awesome volunteers for continuing the learning!
There is SO much to do, and these few amazing 5th graders did it all!
What an excellent game! The teachers had the edge, but the 6th graders gave them a run, or seventeen, for their money. The All-stars made a great showing in the last inning; had Mr. Johnson not taken out Mrs. Moxon with a hard line-drive to 3rd base, the 6th graders may have taken the lead. Good times!

On Tuesday, April 29, all of the 6th grade students in the Spanish Fork area attended the annual Hershey Track Meet at Spanish Fork High School. Students had an amazing time competing in events such as: 100 yard dash, 100 meter race, 400 meter relay, softball throw, standing long jump, etc. It was a perfect day and everyone had a great time, including the 6th grade teachers, who took very seriously their chance to race. And the teacher winner is ... our very own Mr. Crockett! Run, sixth grade ... RUN!
Girls:
The 3rd grade family program reminded us about some of the funny and not so funny parts of being in a family! They did an AMAZING Job!
P.S. Congratulations to our Mrs. Jerrika Terry Bridges who just is starting her own new little family (She was married on Thursday May 8th)
If you have over 2 million minutes, does it always go with cool music? Loud cheers? Over 100 books, 2 $50 College Scholarships, AND a brand new bike given away? It does if they are reading minutes at Spanish Oaks Elementary!!! Mrs. Brown rocked the school, with the help of Mr. Crockett providing the tunes, at our end of the year "Race into Reading" Assembly. Spanish Oaks children read, read and READ ... and the minutes prove it! So does the love of reading that the children here have developed! Keep up the great work and ... READ READ READ!
