Thank you so much to Sean & Ellen with Bobcat Opossum, who spent some time with local high school bands, including Steelville High School, last week! The students had so much fun listening to music, and they even got the chance to join with Cuba and St. James students to write a song, Little Liza Jane! Here's a link to Bobcat Opossum's performance of the song!

Mrs. Martin’s kindergarten celebrated World Kindness Day yesterday! We brainstormed ways to show kindness, listened to books and songs about kindness, made kindness crowns and wrote about and illustrated ways to be kind. ☺️






SHS artists recently completed lino-block prints as the last project in their Line unit. This process required students to come up with a design, carve it into a piece of linoleum, and make multiple copies of their work. Students had lots of freedom with their designs for this project, and they turned out great!
