Take a look at the STEM Challenge 4th graders participated in last Friday. Students worked through the Scientific Process with the challenge of making the longest chain possible with one piece of paper. Students completed brainstorming, teamwork, drawing a diagram, making a model, measuring, and time for reflection. It was also a Knight Shield pajama party day. They had earned 100 Knight Shields collectively as a class. It's great to see this group in action!

Students at Schneider Elementary practiced their gross motor movements through obstacle relay races, today! Changing of direction, leaping over hurdles, and balancing across a beam were a few of the activities students participated in. These types of skills are essential in developing a base for more advanced movements used in every day activities, as well as athletics.
It's time for the October Monthly Update from the Superintendent. Inside you'll find information about this month's Exemplary Knights that you won't want to miss, plus lots more! https://5il.co/1jlf5 #br_u_knighted
