The 6th grade did a fabulous job of transitioning to virtual learning earlier in the week.  We have become more creative and flexible as we navigate the challenges that this year has presented to us. The students have proven to be excellent problem-solvers during this time. 

On Thursday of this week,  we celebrated Earth Day.  Students in every grade participated in a Litter Walk.  Sixth graders were shocked at how much trash they picked up as they cleaned up the perimeter of the school building. 

Friday, students honored Autism Awareness month and dressed in blue.  The school raised over $300 for the Kinney Center for Autism Education and Support at Saint Joseph's University.

Upcoming events: Students in 3rd through 8th grade will be taking the CTP 5 exam the week of May 3rd.

This week the 6th graders have been hard at work preparing for their CTP exams next week. In math class we spent time taking practice tests and reviewing our answers. The students have been working hard, but we still found time for fun during lunch and recess. Good luck on the CTP's next week, 6th grade!

11/13 This week the 6th graders continued their exploration of natural resources in science class. After completing their energy project, we took a deeper dive into different sources of renewable energy. Biomass and nuclear energy are types that have a lot of potential, that scientists are still learning a lot about. Imagine being able to turn on a light bulb from energy from animal waste! Or being able to harness nuclear energy and travel through space- not a reality yet, but we saw the enormous energy potential by watching a video of solar flares. Next week we will do the always classic lab on cleaning up an oil spill. Announcements: Please arrive at school before 7:55 AM. Parents - please fill out Pick Up patrol every morning, even if your child will not be attending school that day. As part of initiatives to keep our students well, we ask that snacks and lunches contain minimal sugar.

The End is Near! The 6th graders have been working hard this week at preparing for their finals. With less than two weeks of school left in the year, they are so close to becoming 7th graders! Before they wrap up the year though, they presented their group projects on another ending- the end of a star's life. The projects that they worked on during science class last week were wonderfully creative and unique, and we had fun learning about the life cycles of different sized stars during the presentations.
