Good Afternoon, Viking Family,
We hope that you have enjoyed your Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday today!
We want you to know that we have been closely monitoring Winter Storm Demi and have been in contact with Lowndes EMA and other officials. With the storm’s timing, there are no anticipated threats during school hours on Tuesday, so we will have school on Tuesday, January 21st.
All after-school activities on Tuesday will end by 5:00pm, including Prime Time. The Lowndes versus Colquitt basketball game is postponed.
However, with the chance of ice and possible snow on the roads Wednesday morning, and the safety of our staff and students being our top priority, we have made the decision to close all Lowndes County Schools and System offices Wednesday, January 22nd.
We look forward to seeing your student at school tomorrow and encourage you to stay safe and warm on Wednesday!
Students in Mrs. Niewoonder's first grade class learned about magnets. They learned how magnets are used in every day life and conducted experiments to demonstrate how magnets attract and repel each other and what effect magnets have on common objects.
Adventures in action! Mrs. Renfroe's 4th grade class embarked on an exciting journey through history, retracing the steps of Lewis and Clark. Each station brought a new discovery about their expedition westward.
Miss Ply’s class is preparing to start learning how to write their own opinion piece! Students split into groups depending on their opinion on “Would you rather have a tablet or a cell phone?” As a group, they discussed multiple reasons but had to agree on three. As a group, they shared their reasons with the class to see if they could persuade their classmates! ✍️
Ms. Shiver's Science 5th grade students worked in small groups to create and label animal and plant cells.
