Bruceton School

The date for the county middle school track championship has been changed to May 11th. The track team will practice tomorrow after school.

After spending the week doing activities about The Three Little Pigs, we did a STEM activity today where we used gumdrops and toothpicks to build our own houses that would stand up to the Big Bad Wolfs blow.

Mrs. Kristin and Mrs. Mia’s class have been learning about how to help take care of our earth in honor of Earth Day. They have had a busy week picking up litter around the school and repurposing materials, such as breakfast bags and scrap paper, for art.

Kindergarteners from Miss Price's class spent some time in art today making their own knight shields to help celebrate fairytale week this week.

Mrs. Swiger's class has been working on finding the volume of combined prisms. Students worked with a partner to create an animal of their choice and found their total volume.

If you have or know someone who has a child ready to start pre-k or kindergarten for the 2023-2024 school year, please have them come by the school to register as soon as possible. This will help to get their child a spot in pre-k and help us plan for the upcoming year. If your child is already in pre-k at Bruceton School, you do not need to re-register them for kindergarten. Feel free to call the school with any questions at 304-379-2593.

We want to wish a huge thank you to our secretaries: Susan Moran and Felicia Young! They are the glue that keeps our school together!
