Exciting times in Ms. Phoebe's history class at Umpire as our students participated in a classroom simulation of the Greek Olympics! From tongue-twisting debates to paper airplane javelin throws, the competition was fierce and fun! They also showcased their skills in boxing by memorizing box contents, hummed popular songs for music, designed unique flags for art, and even had a thumb wrestling championship! Kudos to all the students for their creativity and enthusiasm in bringing history to life!
It was a wild and wonderful day at CRES! Thanks to Carolina Critters, our students had the chance to learn about a variety of incredible animals through their engaging, hands-on presentation.

The Carolina Critters program brings the wonders of nature directly to schools, creating an interactive space where students can deepen their understanding and appreciation for animals and their environments. Unforgettable memories were definitely made!
