The office at Spring Lake Elementary was turned overnight into the Black Pearl.  Pirates were seen taking over as Halloween was celebrated.

Part of our science core for fourth-grade is that students will understand how fossils are made and do investigations with fossils. Luckily for us at Spring Lake Elementary School, we have a really nice landowner in our neighborhood, that has fossils on his property. For the past five or six years he has allowed us to take a one mile hike up into the foothills on his property and look for fossils. Over fifty percent of the students find fossils. They are mostly fossilized clams from ancient seas that used to cover the area around our school.

Spring Lake Elementary Second-grade held their annual olympic events in September.  The second-grade students participated in various activities to help unite their class as a team and build positive relationships with their peers.  The students learned and practiced good sportsmanship and took pride in doing their best as classmates cheered them on. 

Miss Stephen’s fourth-grade class learns how fossils are formed.
