🏫 NUMBER OF YEARS AT BEAVERCREEK CITY SCHOOLS: 13 years

🧽 💧 Mrs. Zimmerman and Mrs. Powell students at the Preschool Center recently worked together to find out how much water sponges hold. Each student picked a sponge, predicted how much water their sponge would hold and recorded the data into charts. The class was able to compare the amounts of water that each sponge could hold. It looks like these future scientists SOAKED up quite a bit of new knowledge with this fun science experiment! 👩🔬 👨🔬 #BcreekSchools

Last month, fourth-grade students at Fairbrook Elementary received a visit from one of the owners of Jubie's Creamery. She spoke about entrepreneurship and owning an ice cream shop. Students received an assignment to make their own ice cream flavor and one flavor, BOOM SHACKA LACKA, debuted for a limited time! The delicious flavor quickly sold out. What a legen-DAIRY idea!
On the last day of school, Fairbrook Elementary fifth-grade students walked the hallways one final time and the entire building applauded the class of 2028 to wish them the best of luck in middle school. Parents greeted their students outside and joined in on the celebration.
Fifth-grade students at Main Elementary had a fun end to the school year. From field day to fun fest outdoor activities to a graduation clap-out walk, students made some great memories during their final days of elementary school!
Here's your weekly reminder to keep moving forward!
Does this memory ring a bell? 🔔 This #TBT features our Parkwood Handbell Choir performing for our Board of Education during the 2016-2017 school year!
