November is off to an exciting start for our second graders! In reading class, they are working together and solving clues to break out their spoons before the ice cream melts in the How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World Breakout! They have to apply knowledge about the seven continents of the world during this breakout session. They also attended a science assembly where they got to see some awesome experiments!
Thank you Talewise for an amazing presentation today on all things science! Our students were blown away!
This week Mrs. Frack's Pre-K class is wrapping up their Tree Study. They've been having fun in the fallen leaves on our playground, working hard on scissor cutting skills, learning about items that are made out of wood from trees, and learning lots about how to form letters of the alphabet!
Reminder - There is no school for students on Tuesday, November 7, 2023 for election day and teacher professional development.
Find our complete calendar at www.culpeperschools.org at the top of the page on the right side.
Happy Halloween, stallions! We're not sure who is having more fun, the kids or the adults! If you plan to trick or treat tonight, remember our motto, to be safe, be kind and be responsible!
Mrs. Gibbs & Mrs. Kearney took advantage of the warm weather last week and took their 3rd & 4th graders outside to practice writing target words with sidewalk chalk! Such a fun way to practice!

Yowell is celebrating Virginia Farm to School Week! During Virginia Farm to School Week, Virginians make some noise for local farm to school programs. Today we participated in the seventeenth annual “Crunch Heard ‘Round the Commonwealth.” The statewide campaign features Virginians taking a bite out of a Virginia-grown apple and sharing their celebrations. Virginia farm to school programs connect students with locally grown food in cafeterias, preschools, and summer feeding programs while enhancing educational opportunities in school gardens, student farms and land labs, classrooms, and cafeterias. #VACrunch #VAFarmtoSchool
