Last week was Random Acts of Kindness Week, and the 4th, 5th and 6th grade students participated in a Secret Mission Kindness Challenge to celebrate! These are the winners from each grade who completed the most challenges. Good job to all students who participated, and big thank you to the Delmar Lions for donating $5 gift cards to The Ice Cream Derby for the winners!
Also winning, but not pictured, was Connor Burken of 4th grade.

Third grade has been studying the life cycles of plants. They have been comparing the growth of two different types of seeds, studying what the life cycles of different plants look like and how they disperse to continue on their life cycles. Students have been sketching and observing the seeds each day.
