We could not get enough of the creative costumes at our elementary schools this week. From the Vocabulary Parades to our storybook characters, we are loving all of the fall-themed fun!

Our weekly wrap-up is full of friends, facts, and field trips!

Pisgah's fifth-grade students went on a field trip to the Wonders Center & Science Museum to explore natural science, physics, and more!

Carmel Elementary third graders had a blast using magnets in their math lab, then traded their explorer hats for surgical caps as they became *Array Surgeons* at Carmel Hospital!

Mrs. Torres’s kindergarteners at Rossview Elementary drew pictures and wrote sentences about which storybook character they’ll be for the annual vocabulary parade!

Kindergarten students at West Creek Elementary School learned about fire safety during a visit from Clarksville Fire Department's Station 10. They learned about the features of fire trucks and about Stop, Drop, and Roll!

East Montgomery Elementary's third-grade classes learned about women's rights in Social Studies, exploring the accomplishments of women.

Kirkwood Elementary students were challenged to imagine a natural disaster has left a magnetic object trapped in a restricted area. Their mission? Design a device using magnets to safely retrieve the object without entering the dangerous zone! What a fun activity for students to put their problem-solving skills to the test.

Mrs. Passino’s sixth-graders at Richview Middle took their learning to a whole new level with a GLOW party! Students navigated their passage readings just like Abraham navigated his journey from Mesopotamia to Canaan. Who says annotating and finding text evidence can't be fun?!

Mrs. Joyner’s seventh-grade students brought "The Count of Monte Cristo" to life with an exciting mock trial! Students stepped into the roles of prosecutors, defense attorneys, jurors, and witnesses, putting their critical thinking, communication, and debating skills to the test.

Congratulations to The Rossview Playhouse for competing at the Tennessee Theatre Association's One Act Play Festival at Collierville High School and winning the Award of Excellence! Clay Coleman and Piper Vinson were named to the State All-Star Cast. We're proud of this very talented cast and crew!

Looking for some motivation on Monday? We see our students working hard and achieving their goals!

At Kirkwood Elementary, students dressed in their scrubs and worked together as a team. Fourth-grade students tackled challenging math and reading tasks while putting their critical thinking and problem-solving skills to the test.

Byrns Darden kindergarteners are keeping their minds and bodies active in the classroom and PE!

Sango's 5th graders are bringing history to life through art. Their comic strips explain why the Constitution was needed and how it was created. A creative way to combine history, art, and storytelling!

Congrats to the West Creek Middle students who earned Presidential and National Physical Fitness Certificates!

Mrs. Pounds’ Kindergarten class at Woodlawn Elementary had a fun-filled pumpkin day. They learned about the life cycle of pumpkins, how they're used for different holidays, and recipes!

First graders at Rossview Elementary had an exciting time learning about community helpers. Thank you to our local Fire, EMS, and SWAT teams, who visited to teach our students about the important roles they play in keeping our community safe.
