On Thursday, Nov. 15th, our 2nd grade classes visited the Santaquin Police Station, Fire Station, Library, America First Credit Union, and the Santaquin Chieftain Museum to learn about our community. We ended our field trip by performing our Thanksgiving program for the Santaquin Senior Citizens luncheon. We are glad to be a part of our community and it was fun to learn so many great things about the people here. Thanks to all who helped! (written by Mrs. Kelley)
The second grade classes did a Thanksgiving Program for the school and for their parents today! They sang songs about turkeys, being thankful, and getting together with family and friends. Each class also recited a poem. Great job, second graders!
The 6th grade went on a fun field trip to the Bean Museum and Classic Skating on Friday!
Last week, our 6th graders presented their very own wax museum for the school and parents! Each student researched someone famous in history that had a positive influence on the world, and wrote bio-riddles and created presentation boards. On Thursday, they dressed up as the person they researched and presented everything they learned for the school and parents.
Last week, the Clark Planetarium came to our school and put on an awesome assembly! They did exciting experiments to help us learn about science topics like electricity and high and low pressure, and we even got to hold a meteorite! Thanks, Clark Planetarium!
Students from our school went to the Veterans' Home to hang up 120 posters and to thank the Veterans for their service. Check out what some members of the student council had to say about their experience!
We had the chance to celebrate Red Ribbon Week last week! Students learned about making good choices, taking care of themselves, and being kind. Each class made a banner about saying no to drugs, and the banners are hanging in the halls of the school. They are so fun to look at! We had lots of fun dress up days, and created some signs in the fence outside, too! Thanks for helping us celebrate Red Ribbon Week!
Thank you to Sign Gypsies Utah County for helping us with the signs in front of the school!
