The Principles of Nutrition class took a break from learning about nutrients this week for a competitive bake-off judged by our very own high school teachers! Three ribbons were awarded for “most professional,” “most creative recipe,” and “best tasting!”
Congratulations to East Palestine Middle School’s Kandace Best for winning the WKBN Caring for Our Community Creative Classroom grant. Mrs. Best, along with the help and support of many others, renovated the school courtyard over the last several months to allow students to enjoy the outside while learning about science. Mrs. Best and others will be using this grant to make additions to their already outstanding project. You can catch the surprise on Thursday, December 26, at 5:00 pm on WKBN. Great job and congratulations Mrs. Best!
The Child Development students spent two days mingling with the EP Preschool students! They read stories, participated in station activities, sang holiday songs, made reindeer food, and so much more!
Thursday will be Pajama Day for the elementary school. Thank you to PTO for the popcorn and water for movie day!
This month’s Cultural Cuisine Day featured a Traditional Irish Soda Bread recipe with a special guest, Mr. Mark McTrustry! He explained historical and personal significance behind this recipe and the students loved getting to taste a little Irish heritage!
The girls basketball JV & Varsity games scheduled for this evening vs. Southern Local has been cancelled. The weather conditions for their return trip home was of concern. We have rescheduled the contest for 2/5/2020.
