EVENTS OR NOTICES
Does art inspire you? Clouds that look like faces? Sugar? Discovering new galaxies? Artists have looked to the world around them for centuries to gain inspiration. This year’s 10th anniversary of Doodle 4 Google asks students to do the same. The winner’s artwork will be made into an interactive doodle on Google.com as well as loads of scholarships and prizes.
Use your imagination to create a Google Doodle based on what inspires you.
Kindness Month continues!
Don’t forget to be kind to yourself and others!

Ulrich-Verderber scored his 1000th varsity basketball point during the game. BFA Bobwhites won 66-34. Thank you Mrs. Smith for the Picture and information  AFTER-SCHOOL MATH CLUB Students working with Ms. Mailhotte created a bakery, "Olivia's Sweets". This project gave students an opportunity to practice their math skills as "money" was exchanged for each food item. The students were excited by the learning opportunity and the chance to serve customers. LINK TO 11 PICTURES    USA Students at work Tuesday 2-6-2018. LINK TO 22 PICTURES   RENAISSANCE Students in Mr. Allen's classroom worked on writing tasks. 2-6-2018. LINK TO 12 PICTURES   VOYAGERS Students in Voyagers 5th Grade were back at their assembly of the PinBox (pinball) machines on Monday 2-5-2018. Mr. Matchstick who developed the machine design was there to guide and assist students. His kind of creative work is a great example for our students who learned that something as ordinary as cardboard can be used to make something complex and extraordinary. The students were quick to understand the detailed building instructions. LINK TO 42 PICTURES   RENAISSANCE TEACHERS VS. STUDENTS BASKETBALL The teachers in Renaissance were constantly harping on about their amazing basketball skills so the students had to call their bluff and hold a basketball contest. It proved to be a wipeout with students winning with well over 40 points and teachers ending up with 4. LINK TO 34 PICTURES
