Mrs. Garrett’s first grade has been learning about how scientists make observations this week, so they made scientific observations using popcorn!
STEAM 6-8 worked on two projects from the Ancient Art time period. First they worked on a clay project and today started their printmaking project. They carved their Egyptian image into foam, used a brayer to apply paint and then printed it on white or black paper.
First Grade STEAM worked on Clay Tile Petroglyphs. They chose an image and carved it into a red clay tile. Next, they underglazed the image and it is now being fired in the kiln!
5th grade used Lego today after a lesson on classifying.
Bus #6 is running approximately 20 minutes late this evening. We apologize for the inconvenience.

School is in full swing and time has gotten away from me. I need to introduce myself to all of you Panthers. My name is Christine Hollenkamp and I'm the new principal at Field Grade School. I live in Salem with my 3 dogs. I have one sister and my parents that live in Salem as well. I love to travel and read. Shopping and sweets are two of my other favorite things. I am a 20 year educator, having taught every grade 1-8 and most recently special education students. I'm so lucky to call myself a Panther and be part of Field Grade School. It's been my dream to be a principal for a while and I'm enjoying every minute of it. I've loved spending time with the students at lunch and seeing them in the halls throughout the day. I will see many of you at sporting events and other fun activities going on throughout the year. I've already met some wonderful people in this district and I thank you for making me feel so welcome. The staff at Field Grade School is just awesome and they have been very welcoming as well. I plan on this being a great year for students and staff at Field Grade School. I look forward to many more years here as a Panther.

Iconik has agreed to take eighth grade banner photos for any eighth grader that participates in an extracurricular activity at Field School: Basketball, Baseball, Softball, Cheerleading, Chorus, Band, Scholar Bowl, Focal etc. The cost of the banner is $55.00 and will be 3 ft by 4 ft. Parents are responsible for paying the $55.00, the school does not cover this. The photos will be taken on 9/13/2024. The eighth grader will choose what uniform they wish to have their photo taken in. For those sports that have not had tryouts completed, the student may wish to take a photo in that uniform, but this does not guarantee they will make the team for that sport. Students can wish to have more than one banner made also but parents will have to pay $55.00 for each banner. Only one banner will be hung in the gym for the 2024-2025 school year. This is optional; you don’t have to purchase a banner. If you wish for your student to have a banner or have any questions, please contact Christina Pinkston christina_pinkston32@yahoo.com.
