REMINDER: Next week is Williston Homecoming! Show your school spirit by dressing up during the week!
We loved our family night at the Pumpkin Patch! What a beautiful evening 🍁Thank you all for coming out!
Mrs. Conlin and her second grade students completed a STEM project that involved creating a flying machine that was inspired by the book "Rosie, Revere: Engineer." Students planned their designs and created their flying machines using various materials and time restraints. When they were finished, they tested their flying machines to see how well they worked!
Mrs. Lippert's class worked in STEM teams to complete a 10-10-10 challenge. They were only given 10 index cards, 10 cm of tape, and 10 minutes to create the tallest structure that could hold one book.
Mrs. Carnes and her fourth grade class have been practicing being engineers and utilizing the engineering process by constructing a rope with various time and material restraints.
Get ready for Williston Homecoming! Homecoming will be October 3-7!
