The fifth and sixth graders are preparing for a trip to Jamestown, Yorktown, Colonial Williamsburg, and Washington, D.C. The group will leave Monday, February 22, for a 5-day trip. These students completed visual boards and reports on some of the various historical places they will visit in order to prepare them for this exciting opportunity. We hope ya'll have the BEST time and LEARN a lot!!
4th graders preparing for their future!!
We are preparing our students for the future!! Fourth graders are learning through Microsoft Excel how to make spreadsheets by using formulas - they can average numbers, use auto sum function, and alphabetize their lists. They are also learning to use Microsoft Word and Microsoft Power Point. They can then use these skills in their assignments and hopefully again in their future employment!
