Following are highlights of some Spring events Stonehedge students were involved in.
Student Council Organizes Clubs
This spring, with the help of parent volunteers, Stonehedge
Elementary Student Council was able to offer three extracurricular clubs for
our students to participate in.
The Newspaper Club meets before school on Tuesdays and
Thursdays and provides an opportunity for students to have fun and learn about
journalism and the process of news articles going to print .This club has 28
members and is led by Henry Domin, an editor at the Post-Standard
.
The Science Club meets every Thursday after school and provides
the opportunity for children to have fun and learn about science. Twenty-six students
participate in Science Club and the coordinator is Christopher Paoli, a science
teacher at West Genesee High School.
The Running Club has 21 members and meets Mondays and
Wednesdays after school. This group provides a positive and healthy opportunity
for our students to develop a routine of physical exercise while gaining confidence
through accomplishing goals. Susie Mazzoni leads the group in running games and
interactive lessons.
I would like to thank all our parents and students who have helped make these clubs a success.
Stonehedge Stands up
The West Genesee Middle School “Around the Edges” group presented anti – bullying skits to all the Fifth grade classes. The group then led a discussion about bullying and “Standing Up”. The middle schoolers also helped ease anxieties by answering the younger students questions about middle school and what to expect next year.
Special Olympics
Twenty students from Stonehedge participated in the Special
Olympics at Cicero North Syracuse High School on Thursday.
The students and staff departed from Stonehedge in the
morning...
…and returned in the afternoon to a rousing celebratory “Congratulations!”
from the Stonehedge community as they paraded through the hallways to show off
their medals.
Congratulations to SKATE students Charlotte, Halli, Ricky, Ryan, Annalyse, Brooklyn, Miranda, Nadia, Max and Alex; kindergarteners Emily, True, Olivia, T.J. and Nicole; first-grader Jacob; second-grader Gavin; fourth-graders Matthew and Brandon; and fifth-grader Lily.
