Our full day kindergarteners learned about the voyage of the Mayflower. They sailed around the school hearing the story read by their pilgrim teacher, they rescued pilgrims who fell overboard during a story and they spotted land in North America. Our kindergartners are glad they didn't have to sail on the real Mayflower!

Congratulations to Perry Ewell, our teacher of the year! Mr. Ewell has taught at our school since it opened 24 years ago. This year is his 37th year teaching. Mr Ewell cares deeply about his students and their success. He said, "Teaching is tough work. Watching our students succeed and develop makes every challenge worthwhile. I cannot take credit for my students' success. They make the choices. We teachers just give the opportunities and encouragement. I teach because I love to see children grow and achieve, and if I can do anything to foster that growth - hallelujah!"

On October 24th, Spring Lake School's first graders were treated to a hauntingly delightful time as the 9th Grade Peer Leadership Team from Payson Junior High visited our school. The first grade students eagerly participated in a variety of spooky games such as Monster Tag, Ghost in the Graveyard, and spine-tingling spooky stories. The peer leaders took charge ensuring everyone had a memorable experience filled with laughter and fun.

This event not only provided a fun break for the students but also fostered a sense of community and mentorship between the older and younger students. The 9th graders were thrilled to interact with the first graders, sharing in the Halloween spirit and making meaningful connections. The day was a fantastic success, leaving both groups eagerly anticipating future collaborations and activities.
