Check out these incredibly imaginative works of ink blot art created by second, third and fourth grade students under the guidance of Elementary Art Teacher Mrs. Stieve. These works represented some very creative interpretations of what the students saw in the inkblots. Look closely at how they used their skills to create intricate and detailed works of art. Incredible. Mrs. Stieve has a few display boards in the elementary lobby and students love to stop and see their work and the work of their peers displayed. It is wonderful to hear the students talk about the works with advanced and relative vocabulary! Remember, it's Youth Art Month!

This month’s agriculture lesson was wiggly and dirty! Mrs. McKinley, Cornell Cooperative Extension Ag in the Classroom Educator, visited to chat with first graders about composting and worms. As she read the story and asked questions, students appeared well-informed using words like composting, decomposition, and nutrients! Mrs. McKinley brought working worms with her along with flashlights and magnifiers so that students could study the little pile of humus and worms placed on a paper plate. The young learners looked for the worms and their eggs, and even discovered some other healthy critters. It was an exciting lesson!

You may notice yellow and orange cones around campus. They are not decorations. They are part of our daily safety plan. Cones in the Wayland bus loop are there to prevent cars from driving around stopped buses, forming multiple lanes, and creating dangerous situations for students and staff. Please remember that the loop is buses only from 7 to 9:30 am and 2 to 4:30 pm.

STOP SIGNS at crosswalks on campus must be observed.

If you are picking up or dropping off, please use designated parking lots, especially for afterschool activities. Do not move or remove cones on either campus. They are placed intentionally to protect students.

There have also been an alarming number of reports of vehicles passing stopped school buses, including in the opposite lane on our community roads. This puts children at serious risk as they head out to school in the morning and return home in the afternoon.. Please stay alert on village streets and rural roads alike. Thank you for helping us keep every student safe.
