Here is a very small snapshot of some of the activities our 8th graders experienced at camp this week.
Our 8th graders went to camp this week, making many memories before moving across the street to DHS in the fall. We had an amazing time, and we owe our sincerest appreciation to the 15 camp counselors, all DCS graduates, for making that possible. These young men and women donated their time to serve as our leaders, and they were truly the perfect role models. Joining this year were Emma Helmstadter, Patrick Lefere, Sara Marek, Kaiden Chinavare, Maddie Doody, Skyle Messer, Mariah Costelli, Lia Parry, Megan Horkey, Betsy Nieman, Anto Ritsema, Liam Bressler, Trevor Schroeder, TJ Salley, and Caden Bellaire. Ms. Iocoangeli, Mr. Atkinson, Mr. Hall, Ms. Kurek, Ms. Capling, Mr. H, Ms. Spiegel, and Mr. Ost also joined the experience this year. You probably won't see this group around the community at all this weekend. They will be sleeping. The camp experience is just another example of why Dundee kids and our community are simply the best.🤍💙🤍💙
Mrs. Schafer's and Ms.Gangway's 6th Grade homerooms took a trip to Wolverine Park on Thursday. Celebrating all the accomplishments they have made together this year.
Many 5th grade students attended the Old Mill tonight to perform their wax museum projects for the community. We appreciate everyone who came out to support this event. We were so excited to bring this back after 5 years and we hope to continue each year. Thank you also to The Old Mill for hosting us tonight.
5th Grade Wax Museum! The kids have worked so hard transforming into their historical figure. Many will also be at the Old Mill tonight from 530 to 630 for the community to visit. Hope to see you there!
It was Jurassic Park week this week in 8th Grade Science. As a kick off, students became paleontologists with a fossil dig. They did a great job. We then "visited" the Petrified Forest National Park on a Virtual Field Trip. A lot of testing was completed and we rounded out the week by watching Jurassic Park.
Mrs. Helmstadter's 5th grade enrichment class had a reading buddy celebration with Mrs. Phelan's first graders. What a great day for popsicles and sidewalk chalk. Keep reading over the summer everyone!
The 5th grade had a blast on their field trip to Forest View Lanes today. They had the perfect weather and captured many memories.
