Everyone had a great time in the 4th of July Parade. Thank you to everyone who worked to create the float and to all those who participated in the parade. Thank you to the Kocher Family for their wagon and tractor and to Kate and Aaron Harris for allowing us to park the float in the dealership garage.

Field Day! Fun Day! Field Day Teams! Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Rader for and all the parent volunteers who made this possible.
The Queen of Science is at it again! Mrs. Blackford had the 7th and 8th grade students work in teams to create a roller coaster. Each coaster was made from only paper and tape. The coaster needed to be engineered in such a way that the ride had to last at least a minute. The longer it took for the marble to ride the coaster the better. The Tsunami Coaster won for the longest ride and best track. The Cloud Coaster won for the most creative. All teams did a fantastic job!
Our fifth and sixth grade students are very talented. They were divided into groups , given a theme, and then had to design an outfit that expressed the theme. The catch, the outfit had to be made from trash. They all did an amazing job. See if you can guess the theme of each of these trashions in our St. Edward School Trashion Show. Great idea, Mrs. Knowlton!
We are offering spirit wear to purchase once again. You can order using the link below. Maybe you have outgrown your current spirit wear shirt or hoodie or perhaps you never ordered anything. This is a great way to advertise the school. We will have special days throughout the year when students can wear the t-shirts.
If you are planning to be in the July 4th Parade, please order your t-shirts to wear. The colors fit in with the patriotic theme.
We will pick up the orders and notify you when they are here. The window to order ends at 11:59 pm on June 7th.

Today our fifth and sixth grade students participated in a compliment activity. Students sat with their backs to the board while the other students came up and wrote things about them on the whiteboard. When the students turned around to read the compliments, it was smiles all around. Everyone enjoyed the activity, including Scout. What a great idea!
Our preschool , prek, and first grade students have been taking care of their butterfly larvae. They watched them form a chrysalis and then hatch into butterflies. They fed them watermelon. The butterflies are now ready to be set free and enjoy life in the wild. Way to go Mrs. Neill , Mrs. Fulton, and all our preschool , prek , and first grade friends.
Fifth grade students practiced budgeting money by holding a class auction! Each student received their own bidding paddle and $50 to spend. All students got to bid on prizes and everyone was entered into a raffle for a larger Bob Ross-themed prize. We even had a special guest, Ms. Jessica, to help us out! It was an exciting day!
WooHoo!
WooHoo!
Our first grade students have been taking care of their Ladybug Larvae. The Ladybugs are now ready to be set free and enjoy life in the wild - Fr. Rod's flower bed. Way To Go Miss Fulton and First Grade!
Mrs. Blackford - Queen of Science! Our fifth grade students had to design a landing platform for an egg drop. The plan was to make it soft enough not to break the egg when it landed. It also had to have very little bounce so the egg wouldn't bounce out and break.
All the students did a great job with their designs. The champion of the egg drop was Lincoln. His egg did not break even when dropped from all the way up the stairway. Lincoln - King of the Egg Drop!

Good luck to all the dancers!

WooHoo to both of these teams!
Help animals in need!
No one does science like Mrs. Blackford! Our fifth grade students created Cluckers. Ask then how they made that chicken sound.
5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th had a great field trip today. They walked to the courthouse. They were able to meet with Judge Stimpert, visit the judges chambers, tour the courtroom, and see the jury deliberation room. What a fantastic field trip!
Our wonderful sixth grade students spontaneously created this star. They were asked to come up with a caption to go with it and this is what they said:

Our faith shines like a star. - Stella
We are St. Edward School. We shine as bright as the stars.
Shine on!
