Slide Ranch Field Trip

Slide Ranch offers experiencial learning in a beautiful setting. Through hands-on learning, teamwork and
physical activity, the children develop a stronger sense of self, respect for the natural environment, and are
given tools with which to make decisions and choices about healthy food and healthy living. The theme of
food is used as the universal springboard to teach about an appreciation for the people who grow and raise
the food, the soil in which it is grown, the animals that provide food, and the importance of composting and recycling. When children make a sensory, positive connection with the natural environment and healthy food, the experience transforms their general approach to the outdoors, nutrition, health and themselves.

6th Grade Carnival

The carnival was held on Friday, Oct. 30, as part of the first student incentive day. Once again, teacher Mary Patterson organized a fabulous event for the sixth graders. Thank you to all the teachers, parents, and upper classmen who helped make the carnival run well and to the parents who baked for the Cake Walk. As you can see below, there was no shortage of treats!
