HES 4th grade had a special visitor yesterday. Ms. Ivy Stone, South Brown County Community Foundation Director, visited for a lesson on 'Philanthropy'. Students learned how philanthropy works through role play. Ivy also shared about the match days that occur each summer during the Brown County Fair Week.
Ivy will also be meeting with the 5th & 11th grade students throughout this week as part of SBCCF community outreach! Students engaging in learning about how to contribute to their community is a lifelong skill.





These two have each read 300 books! Way to go Cadance and Trey! 📕⭐️

Thursday, April 3rd, marked the end of our recorder unit at EMS! Throughout this quarter, our 5th graders earned a door-full of belts! Each belt was earned through the learning and playing of a collection of songs to reach each milestone! Each belt introduced a new note and included 2-6 songs that used that new note, increasing in difficulty! Mrs. Crane is super proud of all of her Recorder Rockstars!


Happy School Librarian Day!
