Fall is here!

Greetings Middle School Parents-

This week has flown by. I am looking forward to getting into the second quarter, and the cooler weather. The kids are gearing up for their history project on the First Nations of the United States, and I love the effort I am seeing. Students have built dioramas, collaborated on handouts and speeches, and even constructed an Osage game. These projects will help the students understand the vast diversity of the Indigenous Nations of the United States.

Furthermore, it was a fortunate coincidence to study Columbus’ arrival on the exact day he hit land back in 1492 (October 13th). We have been looking at Columbus’s complicated legacy and will continue to explore the complex angles of colonization that solidified the English presence in the early days of the United States.

While I am short on pictures today, please come and celebrate our Fall Festival on Sunday. You will see an excellent set of pumpkins the kids worked hard on today. Fingers-crossed for first place! 😀
