Nike Elementary School

Nike 3rd graders are learning about how to be a good citizen in social studies. Part of being a good citizen is collecting food for those in need which is the reason behind our Little Pantry Food Drive. The class who brings the most items will earn a extra recess with 3rd grade. Tomorrow is canned soup. Here are some pictures from today.

It was a beautiful day on the playground for first-grade recess.

📚 September Reading Goal Achieved! 🍬 Today, students who met their September reading goal of logging at least 100 minutes on Beanstack were rewarded with a fun treat — a scoop of the candy salad made by staff earlier this month! 🎉 We’re so proud of our readers and can’t wait to see how many students crush the October reading challenge. Keep it up, Scouts — let’s turn the pages and reach those goals! 💪📖 #NikeScouts #ReadersAreLeaders #BeanstackChallenge

Thank you to Deputy Schaefer with the Franklin County Sheriff's Department for coming to Nike to talk with the entire school during the October assembly about the importance of safety drills. Nike completed an intruder drill with two thumbs up.

Nike Elementary was recently highlighted in the Character.org National School of Character Spotlight:
Receiving the National School of Character designation for the first time, this school proudly upholds collaboration, critical thinking, respect, and perseverance. This photo shares a moment during School Family time where the touchstone is practiced and lived out. Students of all grade levels meet in one classroom and participate in "getting to know you" activities. Throughout the year, students see each other and make connections with others, not just their classmates. Congratulations Nike Elementary!

PHS Cheer is hosting both a Mother Son Dance (Saturday, Oct. 11) and a Princess Ball (Saturday, Oct. 25)! The events will be 6-8 PM at Pacific High School, and students from preschool to 4th grade are invited. Use the QR code to register now! #MVNation

For September, library classes are discussing the impact digital lives can have on their well-being and relationships and how to balance media in their everyday lives.

Even though the field trip was postponed today, the kindergarten classes celebrated learning all about apples.

Third grade is reading about vertebrates and invertebrates. Ask your third grader what the difference is between the two.

First grade is working hard on their writing and sounding out the first sound of words.

Congratulations to today's prize winners from the fundraiser. Please send in your child(ren)'s fundraiser packet TOMORROW.

Kindergarten recess was fun today. Friends were running, playing, and laughing a lot.

Thank you to the Nike Sunshine Committee for organizing a treat for staff. Staff were treated to a fountain drink from BP by Dr. Tollison. Sometimes it just takes a small token of appreciation to make Wednesday brighter. #mvnation

Today first grade enjoyed a book read by Mrs. Wade, the librarian. Ask your child what book they checked out today in the library.

Nike third grade students had fun during lunch doing the chicken dance with Dr. Tollison. You never know what fun and silly things might happen at Nike.
