4th graders had a visit from Versant Power today to learn about power line and electrical safety. They got to see a model of what happens when power lines are touched and what happens if you touch something that is touching a power line. They really enjoyed the demo and having their electricity questions answered. If you have a 4th grader at home, be prepared to be asked some safety questions! Your student was challenged to share what they learned at home with their families.
The 8th graders are learning about their high school choices for next year. On February 4th, they visited Orono High School. They met Orono students, got a tour of the building, and learned about the academics and co-curricular activities available at OHS. They also played some games and had a dance-off with the Red Riot mascot. It was a fun day and students learned about one of their high school options.

Basketball update: Congratulations to the girl's basketball team on their overtime win against Glenburn! Paisley M was the top scorer with 18 points! The final score was 33-26!
Pre-K has been working hard on learning about communities (ours especially). We have talked about what it means to be in a community and things you would see in a community and why they are so important. We have built our own little community with houses and business. Each student made their own houses using shapes and decorations and they decided what buildings were important to our community. We hope you enjoy!
Kindergarten is learning about matter! They made ice-cream/soda floats to observe solid, liquid and gas.
