It's Carnival Time! This week, our 3rd graders showcased their math skills by designing and creating math carnival games. They brainstormed, planned, and constructed these games together with their classmates. Today, we played the games and had an amazing time! It was a fantastic way for them to demonstrate all they have learned in math class this year!
This week, students in 4th grade participated in a hands on activity to learn about marine anatomy by dissecting Dogfish sharks. The students did an amazing job and made lots of cool discoveries!

Tomahawk Nation, let's congratulate these 3 stellar students on being named Principal's Choice winners for the 2023-24 school year! Here's what their teachers have to say about them:
Sydni Wiggen - Pendarvis, Dudla
Sydni is reliable and responsible and takes pride in her work! Sydni is a role model for her peers and can always be depended on! She also always knows when her teacher needs a hug or a good laugh! She's got a great sense of humor :) She has been a student leader since day one. She is welcoming, outgoing, and cares about everyone she is around. I am now known at school as "Sydni's teacher" which I am proud to be called!
Jude Nelson - Mainones
Jude is such a kind,caring, and funny kid. He goes out of his way to help anyone who may need it. He is such a ray of sunshine and makes people smile wherever he goes. He always seeks challenges and absolutely loves to learn. He is the kind of student any teacher would dream of having. I am so lucky to have watched him grow this year. He truly is one of a kind.
Bennett Haag - Cernovsky
Bennett is an exceptional 1st grader at Harrisburg Elementary School. Bennett is a model student who shines each and every day in the classroom and exhibits all the qualities we would want to see in a HES Tomahawk student. He is incredibly kind and always thinks of others. He is quick to lend a hand and be a friend to all. He is so friendly and people love to be around him. Bennett is always respectful, responsible, and works hard to do his best. It is evident that he loves school and enjoys learning new things. I am very proud of all he has accomplished this year in 1st grade.
Congratulations Sydni, Jude and Bennett! We are so proud of you!
Friday, Mrs. Lingerman's class celebrated finishing the "Mercy Watson" series in their classroom. This is a fictional story about a pig who loves to go on adventures. There are seven books and we began this reading journey at the beginning of the school year. To celebrate, we completed some ELA activities about the book and we also "pinned the tail" on Mercy!
