On Monday, November 24th, our Camden CSD 3rd grade teachers hosted their Curriculum Family Night at CES.
Families rotated between stations involving reading, writing, math, mindfulness, and a picture station. Each child was also given a free book from Title I. Attendees took home resources and manipulatives to help their third graders excel at reading comprehension, math facts, writing skills and self regulation strategies.
There were also raffles, with CES students Ryelyn Young and Colton Sanborn taking home the prizes!
The event was well attended, and all had a great time!
Two members of Wanderers Rest, along with Lady (a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel), came to visit the members of Mrs. Malenowski's IFA Reading Group today to show their appreciation for our recent Pennies for Puppies donation.
McConnellsville's first care package of the year for the "Adopt A Platoon" program has reached its destination! The group is pictured here with the Veterans Day banner from the recent McVille Veterans Day Assembly! They are also holding the handprint flags made for them by our full day Pre-Kindergarten students!

After finishing the book Shiloh, students in Mrs. Malenowski's IFA reading group were challenged to build the dog a pen to keep the neighbor's dog from hurting him. They worked together to use the gigantic wood Rigamajig building pieces. They were very creative, even designating ropes to be "electric wire".
Thank you to everyone who helped us reach our Pennies for Puppies/Coins for Kitties goal! We were able to send a check for $669.82 to Wanderers Rest Humane Association in Canastota!
The results are in! With the support of our families and community, the McConnellsville Third Grade IFA Reading Group exceeded their $500.00 goal and raised $669.82 for the Wanderer's Rest Humane Association in Canastota through their "Pennies for Puppies, Coins for Kitties" Initiative!
