Sprunica Walkathon Kicks Off!

We kicked off our annual Sprunica Walk-a-thon on Monday! We are asking each student to find sponsors to support them as they walk in the walk-a-thon/costume parade. The commitment of each sponsor is that they would be willing to make a flat donation of money to SES. This is not a per-lap activity. The money collected is due on Monday, September 25, 2023. This is the ONLY school sponsored fundraiser of the year. 100% of the money collected goes for our students and school!

 We raised $13,100 last year! How much do you think we can raise this year? 

Who will be the top prize winner? 

The race is on!!

4th Grade Scientists

Representatives from Dorel came to Sprunica today to talk about car seat manufacturing, the engineering design process, and their careers. Our PLTW unit about collisions and force in 4th grade tied into the presentation well and 4th graders asked FANTASTIC questions! What an awesome day!
