Should we eat... BUGS?!

Submitted by makenna.taylor on Mon, 12/18/2017 - 08:54

Should we eat bugs to end world hunger? Mr. Stewart’s 6th grade class says...YES!!! After learning about the global food crisis, students wrote opinion essays to share their feelings about how we could end world hunger. Students then bravely  “put their money where their mouth is”  and chowed down on bugs! Salt and vinegar flavored crickets and cheddar flavored mealworms were their favorite! Students said that the bugs tasted like crunchy chips or sun flower seeds.

6th gr Orchestra Concert ... AMAZING!

Submitted by alison.hansen on Tue, 12/12/2017 - 17:07

Our 6th gr orchestra performed a Christmas Concert last week and will perform for the school this week during lunch and morning rush (as students are coming to school).  They perform under the direction of Mr. Russell Hansen.  The largest majority of them have not played an instrument before this year and with only a few months under their belt, they are impressive.  It's a great group of students who meet before school for orchestra practice.  An excellent group!

PTA Class Spotlights - Ms. Ontiveros' and Ms. Hall's classes

Submitted by alison.hansen on Tue, 12/05/2017 - 10:04

We'd like to showcase two classes this week - selected because, as a group, they gone "above and beyond" in representing what Sage Creek dragons are all about.

Our 2nd gr Ms. Ontivero’s Class loves “It’s a Math Facts” game! Their variety of backgrounds doesn’t divide them. Instead they are great at showing respect for others and themselves and at school are one big family!

Ms. Hall’s 2nd gr class loves 4 corners and Science Experiments! They strengthen their class family by filling each other’s “kindness buckets” and using kind words. Ms. Hall says they are the best!
