Mrs. Verano’s 8th graders ended our Elements and Periodic Table unit in style — literally! 👕 Each shirt highlights an element, its uses, and its atomic makeup. Science fashion at its finest!

“You scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream!” 🍦 Mrs. Verano’s 8th graders explored the sweet side of science by learning about mixtures! They identified properties and classified whether mixtures are homogeneous or heterogeneous, all while making their very own ice cream in a bag. Science has never been this delicious!

🇸🇪🇮🇸 A cultural visit! 🇳🇴🇩🇰🇫🇮 Mrs. Stafslien's Social Studies classes had two special guests! Stanley's own Miss Norsk Hostfest (Erika Littlefield) and her mom (Krista Littlefield) came to share their experiences of traveling to Norway, display cultural items, and even let the students try a couple of sweet Scandinavian treats! The kids were so excited to get a taste of what they will experience at the Norsk Hostfest this week! ❤️
