Attention current Kindergarten - 5th graders! Don’t forget to sign up! One week left to get registered for the Mini Pom Dance performance! The New Hampton Dance Team can’t wait to work with the Mini Pom Dancers! It will be a lot of fun! 😊

Students voted for their peers to determine which awards each student earned this year. It was so much fun seeing the results and celebrating the unique qualities and talents of our classmates. The students enjoyed recognizing one another and sharing lots of smiles and laughter along the way!

Earlier this year, students described their peers using positive words and characteristics. Those words were turned into special word art clusters, framed, and given to each student as a keepsake. It was a meaningful way to celebrate the unique qualities of each child. We definitely have some pretty “cool” students — and their new sunglasses helped prove it!

In honor of EMS Week, Sam Streeter and Brannon Anderson visited with students to teach them about Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and the vital role EMS professionals play in public safety. They discussed what EMS does, how first responders help people during emergencies, and the important ways they serve and care for our community.

Here are Mrs. Throndson’s homeroom students with their special WordArt designs! ❤️
Each student’s classmates wrote positive adjectives and kind words about them. We took all of those amazing words and turned them into personalized WordArt creations. The students then chose a picture and colors that fit their personalities best! This was such a meaningful activity and a wonderful reminder of how important kindness and encouragement can be. Mrs. Throndson hopes each student keeps this to remember just how amazing, unique, and valued they truly are!

DOUBLE HEADER WEDNESDAY! Let's GO CHICKASAWS! 💙💛
