Yesterday the 6th grade accelerated math students pitched restaurant concepts to a panel of experts. Their job was to persuade the judges that their concept and costs would be sustainable long term and convince them to “invest” in them. The students worked very hard and did an excellent job! Congrats to our winners and their Cozy Critters Café!
A special thanks to our experts:
· Karen Schade—CEO of SLCS
· Mirosya Bauer —Business Manager at SLCS
· Ed Batejan—Chef at Vereiningung Erzgebirge (VE Club)
· Pietro Iovino—Owner of Pistol Pete’s Seafood

This afternoon our 6th grade students attended an assembly with Mr. Litton from Action Karate. He talked to them about the importance of goal setting and how to take it one step at a time to make a lot of progress in the end. He also talked about how to be an upstander and to stand up for yourself and others in a firm but respectful way. One tip he shared was to have confidence in yourself, ask a question, or use humor to diffuse a situation.
Today we had our school wide fire prevention assemblies. A huge shout out to the Bensalem Fire Department!
Tonight the halls of School Lane were filled with the whimsical sounds of music from our fall recital. All the students did a fantastic job! Special shout out to Ms. Windle for putting it all together and to all the families who came out to support our musical program.
The 6th grade students did a great job presenting their Spanish-Speaking Country research at the Exhibition this morning. The audience completed a Scavenger Hunt by listening to different presentations and learning all about the Spanish-Speaking world. Their projects included basic facts about the country such as geographic, political, and cultural information. Students from each class were nominated to replicate one of the 20 flags which were showcased this morning. The event concluded with students performing the Countries and Capitals song. Thank you to everyone who came out to support, and great job 6th graders! You can see more photos from the event here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/fBHQjLVQa7Hmf8F98
