School Bus Safety Week is a great reminder that keeping students safe is a shared responsibility! Please remember to slow down near school buses, stop when the red lights are flashing and stop arm is extended, and watch carefully for students getting on and off the bus.

Together, we can help make every ride to and from school a safe one!

Thank you to our bus drivers for the important work you do to keep our students safe every day!

Christopher Columbus was an Italian-born explorer who set sail in August 1492, bound for Asia with backing from the Spanish monarchs King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella aboard the ships Niña, Pinta and Santa Maria.

Columbus intended to chart a western sea route to China, India and the fabled gold and spice islands of Asia. Instead, on October 12, 1492, he landed in the Bahamas, becoming the first European to explore the Americas since the Vikings established colonies in Greenland and Newfoundland during the 10th century.

Later that month, Columbus sighted Cuba and believed it was mainland China; in December the expedition found Hispaniola, which he thought might be Japan. There, he established Spain’s first colony in the Americas with 39 of his men.

In March 1493, Columbus returned to Spain in triumph, bearing gold, spices and “Indian” captives. The explorer crossed the Atlantic to the Americas several more times before his death in 1506.

In 1925, at the Norse-American Centennial, President Calvin Coolidge gave recognition to Leif Erikson as the discoverer of America due to research by Norwegian-American scholars such as Knut Geirset and Ludvig-Hektoen.

United States Representative John Blatnik from Duluth introduced a bill in 1963 to observe Leif Erikson Day nationwide. On September 2, 1964, the United States Congress passed Joint Resolution 88-566, authorizing the President to proclaim October 9 as Leif Erikson Day. President Lyndon B. Johnson and each president since have done so. In the proclamations, the Presidents have praised the contributions of Americans of Nordic descent generally and the spirit of discovery.

On October 9, 1825, a sloop named, Restauration, with 52 Norwegian Quakers on board, landed in New York Harbor, beginning what would become the first organized immigration from Norway to the United States. In commemoration of their journey and their exploring ancestor, Congress selected October 9 for National Leif Erickson Day.

🦠🔬 Microorganism Growth Lab! 🍞

Our sixth graders got a little moldy this week while investigating how microorganisms grow! Students conducted a hands-on lab using bread that came into contact with different surfaces to see which conditions would lead to the most microorganism growth.

After observing their bread samples, students discovered that desks and dirty hands showed the most growth! 😳🦠

This investigation gave students a great opportunity to make observations, analyze evidence, and connect our science learning to the importance of handwashing and keeping our surroundings clean. 🧼👐

Way to go, sixth graders, for being such great scientists! 🔬👏

National POW/MIA Recognition Day is held each year on the third Friday of September. This commemoration is set aside to honor the commitment and sacrifices made by this nation's prisoners of war and those who are still missing in action, as well as their families. As part of the day of recognition, Americans are asked to pause and reflect on the sacrifices made by the military men and women who are imprisoned or unaccounted for as a result of their military service.
