Happy Veterans Day! Thank you to all our active-duty military members and all those who have served. These two boys dressed as their heroes, and you are our heroes, too!
Intermediate School students had to have their passports when they visited Canada last week! Their destination was the All About Canada Museum, and to get there, they had to take a canoe filled with items for the trip. Working together, they applied their math skills to determine which items they could take. When they arrived at the museum, they learned more about Canada, including that the game of basketball was invented there in 1891, hockey is the national sport, and Canadians eat more donuts than any other country. They got a true taste of Canada when they sampled real maple syrup. Students will be visiting 13 countries throughout the school year, without ever leaving the classroom.
Intermediate School students were catapulting pumpkins this morning! Student teams created a catapult using rubber bands, popsicle sticks, and a plastic spoon. They used the device they made to catapult candy pumpkins and marshmallows onto a target.
Meet Ehaan. He didn’t always go to West Carrollton Schools, but he is glad he’s here now. His favorite subject is math because “it’s just how my brain works.” He enjoys talking about equations. He likes participating in the Uno Club at school and enjoys gym time. Outside of school, he enjoys playing football, video games, riding his bike, and spending time outdoors. He said, “I really enjoy time outside.” Ehaan isn’t sure what he would like to do after he graduates in 2033, but we will be here to help him along the way! We’re glad you’re in West Carrollton Schools now! You will always be a Pirate! #wcpiratepride #westcarrolltonclassof2033
Moraine Fire Marshal Doug Hatcher visited fifth-grade students today and talked about home fire prevention. Some of the things they learned were to use surge protectors instead of extension cords, not to walk away from a burning candle or anything cooking, and to unplug appliances when they're not in use. Good reminders for all of us! If you want to know more about fire prevention, ask a fifth grader! They learned a lot today! #morainefiredepartment #westcarrolltonintermediateschool

Can you keep pace? AJ from the Intermediate School can! He completed 100 laps on the PACER (Progressive Aerobic Cardiovascular Endurance Run). The PACER test is a multi-stage running test that measures an individual's aerobic capacity. The test involves running 20-meter shuttles back and forth across a marked track while keeping time with beeps. The time between beeps gets shorter each minute, requiring participants to run faster. The test ends when a participant fails to reach the marker in time for the second time. Physical Education and Health Teacher, Jen Moran, said, “this is so rare. I saw this happen about 20 years ago so I’m extremely proud of him!”
It was a feast in the Intermediate School life skills classroom today! Students made mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, stuffing and pumpkin pie. The best part was enjoying the food with friends!
Thank you to everyone who made our Multicultural Night and Art Fair a wonderful success! 🌍🎨 The evening was filled with culture, creativity, and community.
Gratitude around the globe. #PiratePride
