Congratulations to Kambira, our first SBCS Trail Guide!  She embodies all of the Habits of Scholarship at SBCS, but particularly Responsibility.  She was honored today at School-Wide Meeting and will enjoy special privileges while she is at SBCS.

Pre-K students have started investigating how to work together to accomplish goals with Parachute Time! Everyone wants to run under the parachute but that cannot happen unless everyone else helps lift it up high. Taking turns, working towards a common goal, and celebrating each other's successes - all while smiling and laughing and dancing, TOO FUN!

Elementary Teachers took part in a professional development session about Activity Breaks. The research is SO clear that all people (and especially children) need to get up and move with frequency to be their best selves. This can be challenging in a classroom full of chairs, desks, and book shelves.

Upon returning from Winter Break 4th Grade spent their first Fitness & Adventure class reconnecting with their crew mates in the game Cross the River. Students have to work together to safely get everyone from one end to the other without touching the floor. It was a super fun as everyone wanted "just a little more time" and helped students dust-off their collaboration skills.

Twin Day was on December 18th.  Check out our multiples!

Staff and students got into the spirit on the first day of Spirit Week and dressed up as their favorite literary characters.

The Learning in Depth students traveled to the Smithsonian Museums in Washington, DC to do research on their individual research projects.  

On Saturday November 11^th the SBCS BICO club spent a day learning how to get and stay warm. The outing began with a workshop and relays to learn about and build an outfit that consists of the 3 key layers needed to keep warm. Next, the club brainstormed other ways to get warm such as: to start moving, stand in the sun, and huddle with your group.

8th Graders returned last Friday from an amazing week of hiking and rock climbing with Outward Bound. Here are some pictures from Mr. Gaber's crew.
