REPORTS AND PICTURES SCIENCE P.E. WITH TRAVELERS AND MS. WIGHT Ms. Wight has developed an engaging solar system lesson blended with intervals of vigorous physical activity. She shows and reads intriguing information about each planet in our solar system. Between teaching about each planet she has students stand up and run rapidly around the gym with hula hoops. This mix of learning and running works well to keep the students happy, listening and learning. LOTS OF PICTURES BELOW SUBMITTED BY TEACHERS.  Thank you! EXPLORERS AT SHELBURNE MUSEUM The team explored the Ticonderoga, an old jail house, schoolhouse, and general store.  The students learned how to barter for goods in the general store and learned about steamships.  They even got to experience what school was like in an old school house.  Another favorite was the carousel. SOFTBALL/BASEBALL PICTURES Ms. Jessica Mitchell supplied these recent pictures. CURRENT SACS STUDENT TOURS SUBARU RALLY RACING Hunter Culver went to Subaru Rally Racing on Friday 5-19-2017 and had a private tour by Ben Ashline, a former SACS student. Ben is a Welder and works on the race cars. MRS. WALSH'S STUDENTS ENJOYED P.E. WITH MS. WIGHT INCREDIBLES STUDENTS WORKING IN THE HALLWAY 5-22-2017
