GSS Royalty Leads the Krewe of GSS

Picture
Moved indoors because of cold temperatures and a puddled parade route, the Krewe of GSS was as exciting as ever with GSS Royalty leading the festivities.  This year's queen, Ms. Linda, danced the hallways and cafeteria with King, Mr. Chris, by her side.  Don't let the suit fool you, Mr. Chris is no court jester!  Being led by the joyous sounds of a second line band, the court and young students paraded around campus throwing beads, Mardi Gras trinkets, and the very special GSS medallion bead.   Family and friends were on hand for the celebration as the students danced their way into the Mardi Gras break.  Happy Mardi Gras!

The 5th grade students recently visited The Green Project working on their Problem Based Learning projects.  

​Problem Scenario: 
Reusing items is important because natural resources are becoming increasingly depleted. How can items be reused instead of ending up in landfills?

Field Experience: The Green Project
Students were broken into two large groups with each group being able to tour The Green Project facility and then switching to the classroom where they were able to work together in smaller groups to create a "product" using reusable items that were provided by The Green Project. 

Thank you to The Green Project for partnering with us and proving an informative and enjoyable field experience for our students!

On Thursday, February 13, grades 3rd - 7th celebrated everything that is African American history and culture.  Students prepared skits, dances, presentations, and songs about the influential black icons of the past 60 years and beyond.  The presentations were organized by Ms. Hill and Ms. Henry, but were performed and created by students.  Artwork celebrating the many important African American  authors, politicians, athletes, civil rights leaders, and many more were presented and hung around campus.  In the end, students were entertained and educated as everyone remembers those important people and times throughout history.
