New Turf Playground Installed

National Read Across America Week
Picture
Thanks to a special donor, the Good Shepherd School was able to replace a worn grass and mud surface with a beautiful new padded turf surface!  The students are now able to again play on their playground as soon as the rain stops.  Before the new turf, the students would have to stay off of the grass for over a week because of puddles and mud. They love running, jumping, tumbling, and of course playing football and tag on the new surface.  The playground also received a water fountain and bleachers for the basketball court.  Lastly, in the April, benches and trash cans will be installed to complete the project.  The project was organized by Hahn Enterprises.

The GSS students celebrated National Read Across America week by dressing up as Dr. Seuss characters, holding an ice cream party, and celebrating with a donut breakfast.  Students read aloud as well as being read to in the class. They enjoyed their week of activities celebrating reading in the classroom.  A special thank you goes out to Ms. Jones for organizing the activities.

Due to the on-going pandemic, the Black History Month presentations had to be modified into a display of art, posters, and class level presentations.  Pictured in the gallery is the middle school construction of an historical tile project while the second graders made posters and some even dressed for the occasion.

In Ms. Aimee and Ms. Alondra's class, PK4 students learned about the real world professions.  One of these professions is how to be a chef!  Students constructed their own pizzas and enjoyed their delicacies.
