Some of our New Central students performed with the JH in the musical "Seussical Jr" this past weekend.





Students in Mrs. Strauman's class combined science and social emotional learning lessons to make a human circuit. When everyone works together, the circuit is complete and the stick lights up. If just one person doesn't do their job, or refuses to cooperate, energy doesnt flow and the stick will not light up. These students are ready to work together to finish the year strong. Go Ducks!

Students and staff at New Central will have the opportunity to dress up and donate for St.Jude Week April 3-7.

Yesterday, students in Mr. Deters' math intervention group, worked together to convert customary units of lengths to another!








Mrs. Deters' class had a visit from Ms. Sky today for Nutrition. They played a game where they had to toss the bean bag into hula hoops. If they made it, the class did 5 jumping jacks. If they missed, they had to do 10. They had to work together to get 15 bean bags in the hula hoops. What a fun way to work on team work and exercise at the same time!
