The 2nd grade had a blast this week, learning about birds from the Audubon Society. 🐥🦅🦉











Thank you to the Middleway Volunteer Company for visiting us this week, teaching us about fire safety and prevention and letting us tour your equipment. We had a blast and are grateful for your time with us!











We had a fantastic assembly this week, “Celebrate West Virginia” with Mick Souter. He shared songs and instruments (guitar, banjo, mandolin, harpsichord and violin) about our beautiful state and celebrated the pride in our state. Listening to our students sing along, participate and have fun was such a special experience!! Thank you, Mr. Souter, for sharing your gifts with us at SJES!




Ms. Horne's Kindergarten class has been learning that different “models” can represent the numbers 0-5. To practice building models, each student drew a number card, traced the number and then glued the number to their city strip. They then constructed building towers (models) to represent that number. Students had so much fun designing and creating their own city street. Math is fun!











Damien O’Banion was nominated for a Positive Principal Referral because he showed positivity and sportsmanship during PE, cheering on his classmates during class. Well done, Damien! I love your positive attitude!
