Oakvale School has enjoyed a visit from the STEM trailer this week. They've been involved in lots of fun lessons and activities about water: the properties of it, the movements of it, and the water cycle. The STEM trailer got its start this spring, but will be expanding to other elementary schools next fall!
FRIDAY, APRIL 15, 2022 is a 2 hour early dismissal.
Last week, Mr. Toman visited Mrs. Vaught's science class at Spanishburg. The lesson was on types of energy and energy systems. The four different stations were tone generator, hand-crank generator, rubber band banjo, and hand rubbing on ice. In each station, the students had to describe the system, identify what the energy source, where the energy was stored, and what evidence of energy was present.

An altercation occurred at Bluefield High School this morning. Appropriate law enforcement was contacted and immediately arrived at the school to assist and conduct an investigation. As a result of federal and state law, the school system is prohibited from discussing student disciplinary matters further. However, administration is deeply concerned with these patterns of inappropriate and unacceptable behaviors occurring this school year. Administration will continue to work towards finding ways to ensure that teaching and learning are not distracted, and both occur in a safe learning environment for all.
