In STEAM, 3rd graders have been engineering their own cauldrons and testing how many marbles they can hold. It is so fun to see all the creativity in the designs and hearing the discussions about how they could improve their build next time.🧉

Dear SCE Kindergarten Families,

Unfortunately due to the threat of inclement weather we have made the decision to cancel our field trip to Mike’s Farm. Our hope is to try and reschedule for next week but we do not have that information at this time. Tomorrow will be a regular school day, students will need to bring their backpacks to school with them. I know our students will be so disappointed but our priority is that everyone has a safe and enjoyable day at the farm. We will hopefully have an update about the rescheduled date and will let parents know as soon as possible to plan accordingly. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding.
