Morningside Eagles -- It's time for our Eagle Hall of Fame announcement.
There is some friendly competition in the Morningside air today. Special thanks to Mrs. Mendenhall for leading us through our daily Character Strong message to start each morning pause together in a SOARing and intention-focused way. It is also a time to celebrate School Counselors Week as she leads us in such positive and "be yourself" ways!
What makes a principal's day over the top and absolutely great! It's when a SOARing Eagle selects us as their Dojo point "read to a principal" activity!
Staff hit the halls today on "S.T.A.R. Patrol" to connect with Eagles who shared something they've learned about or a time they've used our building S.T.A.R. (Stop, Think, Act, Reflect) process the last few weeks. These Eagles spoke right up and shared their real life examples and applied learning. Each added another star sticker to their grade level posters acknowledging school-wide efforts to engage in responsible decision-making during day to day conflicts by reducing harm, seeking adult assistance when needed, and taking steps to repair if harm ever occurs. SOAR on Eagles!
Our 100th day was most certainly filled with fun and creative engagements all Friday long. Our classroom transitions even turned into a fun building search for 100 Soaring Eagles placed all over the hallway walls!
Tis our 100th Day of School! We have had such a wonderful first half of the year and absolutely love growing 100 days+ older together! More pics to come.
5th Graders getting their love for reading on a roll with chapter books and differentiated roles that clarify, connect, visualize, question and more.
Due to the wind chill and ongoing snow removal at our buildings from the recent storms, there will be no school tomorrow - Monday, January 15 - in the Sioux City Community School District. All activities are canceled. The first semester will still end on Wednesday, January 17. Thank you.
With all the wintry weather of late, our indoor recesses have been absolutely great! Thanks so much to the gracious gifts all classrooms received from RiverzEdge just before the December break. We truly appreciate all the thoughtful volunteers and never-ending lines that continued to give and give. Many thanks to them as we are well set for our creative play and connection time until the end of the year!

This week we had the pleasure of thanking these SOARing Eagle Educators for their 20, 25, and 35 years of service in SCCSD. We are so grateful they are part of our Morningside Eagle family! Please help us congratulate their accomplishments and contributions! 👏
Preschool starting their engineer process for the holidays, too! Gingerbread time is here.
Third Grade rocked their STEM integration projects this quarter! Check out these creative and realistic habitats!
We still have two days for even more learning, STEM integration, and holiday cheer. Today mixed in flashy lights, engineer designed gingerbread houses, cozy pajamas, and more.
Just a few more of those ugly sweater pictures that keep our fun learning going strong to end our last school week of 2023!
