Potosi School District

📚🎉 Last School Day Fun for Our 4th Graders! 🎉📚 After some morning reading, we turned our books and supplies into a fun tower-building challenge! Using small boxes, string, masking tape, popsicle sticks, and paper, the goal was to build a 1-foot tall tower sturdy enough to stack books on. Every team got the same supplies and books (in the same order, of course). The winning team stacked 20 books on their tower! Another team stacked 34 books but missed the height requirement! We also created cards for a 4th-grader from another school who is in the hospital. Mrs. Helmke will send them for her to enjoy this summer! ❤️ Rainy days call for movies, so we voted, and Goonies was the winner! 🍿🎥 What a great end to the school year!

Memorial Day is a special day to remember the brave men and women who gave their lives for our country. It's a time to honor their courage and the freedom they fought to protect for all of us. "All gave some, some gave all."

The Potosi Middle School Forensics team performed a readers theatre of the book My Life as a Potato, by Ariane Costner, for elementary and middle school classes on the last few days of school. The story follows a 7th grade boy who moves from California to Idaho and is forced to be the school's mascot--Steve the Spud!

Ms. Patterson's high school science class led experiments with some elementary classes today!

This school year during Choose Love lessons, our 5th graders had the opportunity to be penpals with 5th grade Choose Love Youth Ambassadors from Goshen Elementary School in Goshen, New York. Today, students got to meet them virtually to ask and answer questions about living in different areas of the United States. It was fun to learn about our similarities and differences of the climate, school day, and opportunities in our communities!
