Summer School Program Schedule TODAY IS THE LAST DAY OF SUMMER SCHOOL

EVENTS Hi Everyone! A few students have requested a SPIRIT WEEK for our last week of summer school - so for those who would like to participate: Monday - Crazy Hair and Hat day Tuesday - Raider Pride! (blue and white) Wednesday - Wacky Wednesday Thursday - Superhero Day THURSDAY This week the 3rd grade will present "The Garden Show" in the big gym at 10:30. All are invited! The show is about half an hour long.

SUMMER PROGRAMMING REPORTS AND PICTURES TRIUMPH WORKED ON ROOM DESIGNS Students in Triumph were asked to create a design for their ideal bedroom. Once they determined the room's dimensions and furniture, they researched the items on-line.  It was there that they learned about the dimensions of the furniture and its' costs. This was a great project to sharpen practical math skills and improve drawing and presentation skills. Students explained their plans to each other towards the end of the Summer School day.  Teachers Mrs. Dean and Mrs. Perrault. 8-9-2017 INCREDIBLES USED PAPER PLANES TO STIMULATE LEARNING Students created paper aeroplanes. They then speculated on the how far they expected the planes to fly.  Measurements of actual flight distances were collected. On Thursday the students will see if their predictions matched reality.  Instructor Mrs. Coutts. 8-9-2017. Members of one plane design team.

TRAINER AT THE FRONT DESK Even though one might think that summer time is quiet at St. Albans City School, it is not. Mrs. Trainer is often seen at the front lobby desk handing out meals, accepting deliveries, connecting callers with teachers and processing mail - among many other tasks.  Mrs. Trainer has been at SACS for well over a decade and is very helpful at guiding all those who approach the front desk for assistance. VOYAGERS' PHOTOSYNTHESIS SONG Students on the team have been studying how plants gather energy from the sun and how they grow.  This is a short video they made explaining photosynthesis.
