TIES members recently enjoyed a lively Craft Night at Sicamohr Arts, part of our continued partnership with this wonderful local studio. Students tapped into their creativity by designing their own fidgets — combining imagination, hands-on fun, and a chance to unwind together!

Mrs. Coughlin's 8th-grade health class has been learning to eat like an athlete, which includes protein, whole grains, healthy fats and antioxidants. Recently, the class participated in a cook-off competition with those parameters in mind. The teams made a BBQ chicken, avocado and rice bowl, an egg and avocado toast, oatmeal with coconut, nuts and berries and a ham, egg and cheese sandwich on sourdough. Five judges, including three students, Mr. Reese and Mrs. Wozniak, judged the dishes, and the winner was the chicken and rice bowl team! Congratulations, Matthew, Blake, William and Jack!

Students in Mrs. Duerr's and Mrs. Spielberger’s first-grade classes at Springville Elementary recently turned into young engineers. After studying the life cycle of chickens, the children faced a "farm-to-table" dilemma: how to safely transport an egg from a high hayloft to a ground-level nest.
The mission was to design a device that would allow a farmer to drop an egg without it breaking. Through trial, error, and plenty of creativity, these students explored the basics of physics and protection.

Before spring break, students in Mrs. R. Benz's classes participated in a positivity activity as part of an ELA lesson on character traits. They identified qualities that make someone a positive influence — such as kindness, encouragement, and making learning fun— and then shared those traits with staff members by delivering notes and small treats. The activity gave students an opportunity to apply their learning in a meaningful way while helping spread positivity throughout the school.

Recently, the SGI Fiddlers performed at the Springville Arts Cafe. Under the direction of Mrs. Skowronski, the fiddle club performed two entire sets of music, with an added bonus of special guests, Mr. Bannister and Ms. V, accompanying the fiddlers on guitar and cajon (a percussion instrument). The students did an amazing job and received a standing ovation! In case you missed them, they will be performing at the Art Crawl this year on Saturday, June 6th; time to be announced!
March is one of the longest school months of the year, and it certainly was a busy and exciting one here at Colden! Find out more here:
