Preschool Sentence Builders! Mrs. Niehaus’ preschoolers have been involved in an interactive writing activity. Interactive writing teaches the students connections between what we write and what we read. The students were excited to build their sentences and share them with their friends!

Last Friday several of our Elementary classes took advantage of the nice weather to celebrate a well earned PBIS reward with a trip to the beautiful Sac City Park. Students are rewarded time to time after earning classroom Raider tickets for following directions, being active in their learning, and making positive choices to help the learning environment. When students take an active role in their learning, all students learn better. Thank you students for following school rules and making learning a priority when you are at school!!!







East Sac County is having our annual BOOK FAIR NEXT WEEK during elementary conferences!
The book fair will be open during the school day Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and for Conferences Monday night and Thursday night. Students will make wish lists on Friday and Monday before conferences so parents have an idea of what their children would like.
Parents can set up an eWallet through scholastic so they do not have to send cash with their children, but cash, check and credit cards are always accepted.
Here is a video about setting up the eWallet: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/content/fairs/videos/introduction-to-ewallet.html
