Ways for Students to Get Involved
Safety

down the flag and
assists with hall duty, bus duty, and carpool duty. Please
contact Stella
Godin for additional information.
Student
Council
Student Council is for students in grades 3-5. One
student from each classroom will be nominated by their peers
to participate in Student Council this year. Student Council
will help run the recycling program, organize spirit days,
and be involved with community events. For more information,
contact Pam Reaume.
Odyssey of the Mind
Odyssey of the Mind
is open to K-5 students. Students meet weekly afterschool to
practice problem-solving strategies in math and physics. Teams
attend a regional competition
in the spring and compete in 6 problems to solve.
Past problems students
solved include:
Can a team of elementary students build a vehicle that
will travel through an obstacle course and break balloon
targets? Is there a way to create a performance that brings
famous works of art to life? Can
students design a 14gram balsa wood structure that will bear
weight?
Students who participate learn skills including
cooperative planning, teamwork, creative problem-solving,
and the ability to transfer previous knowledge to new situations
for innovative solutions.
For more information read this
brochure or
