Important Advisory: Advisory for All WCPS Schools
In light of current forecasts indicating poor air quality due to smoke from wildfires in Canada, all Worcester County Schools have been advised to take the following steps to reduce exposure for young students and any staff with respiratory issues:
• Avoid strenuous outdoor activities.
• Keep outdoor activities short.
• Consider moving physical activities indoors or rescheduling
them.
All students and staff should take these steps to reduce exposure:
• Choose less strenuous activities (like walking instead of running) so you don't breathe as hard.
• Shorten the amount of time you are active outdoors.
• Be active outdoors when air quality is better.

4th grade Math Egg Hunt Team Challenge- students solved problems showing a clear solution path and then raced along the game board to the end!
Grade 4 STEM peep challenge- students divided jelly beans, and tooth picks discussing dividing equally and remainders. Then, they worked through the challenge of building a structure that a peep could live in, discussing shapes that would best support their build.
The Americanism Essay Contest Banquet was held at the American Legion in Berlin last evening and it was such an amazing moment for Showell Elementary, as our students took 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in the contest!! Our students got to read their essays and share their knowledge of patriotism. Congratulations again to Julie Chmelick, Mrs. Thompson class - 3rd place, Saylor Miller, Mrs. Kolankowski’s class – 2nd place, and Cora Holland, Mrs. Kolankowski’s class – 1st place. Cora also placed 2nd place in the entire district for this contest!! Way to represent SES girls! We couldn’t be more proud of you!
Happy National Librarian Day to our very own, Mrs. McCabe!📚
