That's a Wrap

  #4for40

 Thanks for joining us for the first full week

of classes during the 2025-2026 school year.

Our leaders do some daily lessons on personal computers.

This group looks ready to get started.

Parkside has several sections of 5th graders.

They're just discovering some stories in our new reading series.

  

What's a Semiquincentennial?

Cheers it's Thursday!  Busy week but a good one.

Glad to know our school year is off to a grand start!

"Mastering" math....they're on their way,

Our leaders know working together is a smart way to go!

Confidence looks good on you!

                   

2026 will be our 

Semiquincentennial

 celebration in the United States!

1776 - 2026

Games, the Essential Advantage

  #4for40

Hello!  Wednesday happens to be day three of our adventure.

Please share Parkside's blog with others so they'll "be in the know!"

We know games do enable success!

We're building understandings of "place value."

Games give us advantages for problem solving.

Thanks...we're going to get back to the games.

Hello Tuesday!

  #4for40

Thank you for joining us on day two of our story, while

enjoying pictures from the first forty days of the school year.

It's good to know we have curious kids.

This baker was busy mixing dough for cookies.

Did you know PreK authors are among us?

Tuesday, the train conductor was very busy!

Welcome to Parkside!

 #4for40

Join us at right here to celebrate a new year

with four pictures during the next forty days of school.

That first day was filled with lots of energy.

There was plenty of excitement.

Pupils have earned a spot for adventures.

Get ready for excellent times!

Making Some History

 

Early in 2025, Miss Jaeleigh got us thinking.   

What about a garden?  We liked her suggestion.

Teamwork we know, is necessary to make any dream work.

Mr. Baum jumped right in & supported us. 

The Academic Foundation honored our grant request.

The process of filling garden beds began in April.

After spring break, classes began working outside.

It was "all hands" on the deck for this adventure.

#DirtyHands are part of the deal.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Shick invited pupils to design logos.

A project like this deserves a fine design.

Why not celebrate this adventure! 

Teachers and kids alike were kept busy.

Finally the seedlings were transplanted outside

That idea of a "Garden Club" is now a reality... 

...and we're grateful for all the support!

  

  

Busy as Ever!

 

            We've been together in school now, over 100 days!  

BIG  thanks to The Lawrenceville Elks for making

a donation to support our after-school tutoring program.

5th graders like "hooping it up" during gym class.

The Cozy Cafe had a Grand Opening!

There were lots of "football facts" learned in the library

during a huge scavenger hunt... with clues all about!

#SuperBowl 2025

The time came for pupils to cast their vote!  

For the Kansas City Chiefs...

...or the Philadelphia Eagles.
Do you know which team won?

Chiefs  22    Eagles  40
