Last Friday, Ms. Schmidt’s grandmother generously made cutout sugar cookies for the sixth graders and their kindergarten buddies, and the students had a wonderful time decorating them.

Congratulations to our Outstanding Geese $5 Friday Winners Liam Blue, Griffyn Rogers, Bryson Kelley, and Ava Shipley!

Both sixth-grade classes have been hard at work on an Earthquake Project. After learning about earthquakes and their causes, student teams collaborated to design and construct quake-safe skyscrapers using simple, inexpensive materials. They then tested their structures during a simulated earthquake. This project not only sparked tremendous student interest but also resulted in sky-high learning.

Take a peek at these stunning student snowflakes! Students in 6A began this project in Art class last week and continued adding to their work during free time. Their creativity and attention to detail truly shine through—each snowflake is unique and impressive.

The Geese Boys' Basketball team returns to HOME action on Tuesday v. Brimfield. Come out and support the boys by going all WHITE with your outfits! JV game starts at 5:30 with the Varsity to follow!

The scheduled Wethersfield HS Basketball games for today...Boys (@ Henry) and Girls (v Princeton) have been canceled for today. Make up dates for both are pending. Stay safe Geese!!

$8,562 was donated to the Kewanee Food Pantry by the Wethersfield Chapter of the National Honor Society. Mrs. Lay is incredibly proud of all the NHS students who came up with creative ideas, organized meaningful projects, and worked so hard to ensure their success. She wants to give a heartfelt thank-you to everyone who contributed—students who volunteered, staff, family and friends, community members, raffle donors, and business sponsors. Your support helped show these young leaders that their actions can truly make a difference in the community and in the lives of others. Her hope is that they carry this spirit of service and continue making a positive impact long after their time at WHS.

Just a reminder that our school-wide food drive will end on December 17. We encourage everyone to donate if they are able—every contribution helps support local families in need during the holiday season. Thank you for your generosity and continued support!
