The first-grade classes went to the zoo on April 29th.  What a fun day to see the animals and learn.  

The second-grade classes went on their final field trip of the year and it was a fabulous one! We started the day off by touring Olson's Greenhouse in Salem. The kids enjoyed learning how the flowers grew and seeing all of the colorful arrangements. We ate lunch in Spanish Fork at a park and from there headed to Harward Farms in Springville. The kids had a blast seeing the animals and going from station to station learning all about farm life. It was a super day and we are grateful for so many willing parents to be apart of this special experience!

On April 25the first-grade classes celebrated Bubble Day.  They had a fun celebration!!

Orchard Hills Elementary held their annual rewards ceremony for keyboarding. Mr. Randy Bartholomew recognized these students for their accomplishments in keyboarding skills.  Top winners are Emme McDowell and Kendra Hancock. Congratulations 4th Graders on a job well done!

To celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday, Orchard Hills Elementary had a school wide read-a-thon.  So fun to have parents and members of the community to come in and read with the students at school!

On March 8th the Orchard Hills Kindergartners went on their first field trip.  What an exciting event.  For most of them the most exciting thing is to ride the bus for the first time.  They went to the Scera in Orem and saw the play Rapunzel.  Afterwards they went to the park to eat lunch and play on the playground.  What a fun day!!

Dr.Douglas Petersen came and spoke to first-graders at Orchard Hills Elementary School.  He spoke about dental health. He is a dentist from Nephi.

Discovery Gateway came to our school to teach our fifth graders more about matter.  Laura taught the students about physical and chemical changes through a variety of experiments.  Afterwards, the students got to experiment themselves with a few different substances.  The students had a blast and learned a lot!

Sixth-grade students at Orchard Hills were required to read a biography of their choice.  They then created a biobody of that person and presented to the fourth and fifth graders what they had learned.   

The week of February 11-15 was Love the Bus Week.  The bus drivers got a special Thank You, students learned facts about the buses, and students got to tour the bus.  A big thank you to the great bus drivers we have!!
