We had another busy week at Shepherdstown! Check out the highlights below:
🚒 Fire Prevention Week
Our students had an exciting surprise this week when Upper Allen Fire Company came to visit with their fire truck! 🚨 Firefighters taught our Wildcats about fire safety and prevention and students loved learning about the special tools and gear firefighters use to keep people safe. Check out the pictures below.
🦁 1st Grade Zoo America Assembly
First graders enjoyed a special visit from Zoo America, learning all about animals and their habitats. They especially loved meeting some animal guests up close! 🐍
🎭 1st Grade CKLA Folktales & Fables Celebration
Our first graders at Shep wrapped up their first CKLA unit on Folktales and Fables in a fun way! Each class chose one of the fables they learned about and acted it out for their friends. After all their hard work, the whole grade came together, popcorn in hand, to enjoy watching everyone’s storytelling and acting skills shine! 🌟🍿
🌿 2nd Grade Field Trip to the Environmental Center
Second graders explored the great outdoors on their trip to the MASD Environmental Center! Through hands-on activities and nature stations, they discovered more about plants, wildlife, and the environment around them. 🍂🔬
📅 Looking Ahead at Shep
Monday, October 13: School is in session! Please let ShepOffice@mbgsd.org know if there are any changes in transportation. 🚌
Tuesday, October 14: School Safety Drill. As part of our annual safety procedures, we will be conducting a school safety drill this week. This required practice helps ensure that students and staff know what to do in the unlikely event of a real emergency. During the drill, classroom doors will be locked, lights will be turned off, and students will move out of sight while remaining calm and quiet. Officer Mark Sanguinito will be on site to support our staff and students as we practice these important safety steps.
Friday, October 17: Picture Day! 📸 Order your photos at my.lifetouch.com using the Picture Day ID EVTH67T6D.
