More Durant PK Field Trip Pictures!
Sumner and Fredericksburg Preschoolers took a field trip to Suhr Dairy and Friends Annual Farm Tours this week. They had the opportunity to learn about, pet and feed many different farm animals: cows, pigs, horses, goats, sheep, chickens, bunnies, a donkey and an alpaca! They also enjoyed frozen yogurt, playing at the corn table and milking a cow! Durant PK Pictures.
Last chance to get your SFT Softball gear. The store closes tonight.

Durant Kindergarten students went on a field trip Tuesday. We had a fun but windy day on our trip! We started the day with looking at the animals at Fontana. We then visited the nature center which was followed by activities about nocturnal animals. We learned more about owls and played a game called owls and mice. We ate lunch in a wind protected shelter and ended it with a lot of play time at the park.

Some Fredericksburg residents got surprises on their doorstep yesterday thanks to the kids at Fredericksburg Elementary. As part of our focus on Citizenship this month, students decorated and delivered May Day boxes. The kids and teachers had a great time driving around Fredericksburg, ringing doorbells and trying to get away without being caught delivering the surprise. The big yellow bus may have been a clue and the kids had a blast!

Durant Elementary had their ENCORE Assembly for April. We celebrated April Birthdays, Mr. Meyer's class reviewed the Pillars of Character, and Mr. Jurgenson led us in the school song.
FES had their April Cougar Way Assembly. This month's focus was Citizenship. The teachers performed a skit showing 2 students who were good citizens at school. There were also two students who were NOT being good citizens, so the Citizenship Cop came and explained the rules of being a good citizen in class, in the hallway, in the bathroom, and at lunch. We also celebrated April birthdays and STAR students.
Students in Kindergarten wrote letters to the PK classes. They wrote about coming to kindergarten and what to expect. Students then read the letters to a preschool partner and shared other facts about kindergarten.
Three Freshmen, Jamie Jones, Avery Werner, and Grace Arthur all came to share their knowledge and experience about proper pet care. They share their rabbits, ducks, and chickens. They discussed many interesting features and facts about these animals from their physical features, how to care for them, food, and the many different traits that make them unique. This was awesome! Thank you so much!
