🌟 It’s National School Counseling Week! 🌟
As school counselors, we’re excited to celebrate this special week, which is all about recognizing the important role we play in supporting students and helping them grow. 🙌
National School Counseling Week highlights the dedication and hard work that school counselors put in to create safe, supportive, and inclusive environments where students can thrive. From providing guidance on academic planning to supporting mental health and emotional well-being, we’re here to help students succeed—no matter what challenges they may face.
Our work goes beyond the classroom. We help students with: ✔️ Academic support and goal setting ✔️ Conflict resolution and peer mediation ✔️ Mental health resources and coping strategies ✔️ College and career readiness
This week, we want to take a moment to thank all of our students, families, and staff for their continued support, and to remind everyone that we are here to listen, guide, and encourage. 💙
Join us in our dress up days and stay tuned for more updates from us this week!
Thank you for letting us be a part of your educational journey! 🌱 #NationalSchoolCounselingWeek #SchoolCounselorsSupport #StudentsFirst

🚨 SCIENCE IN ACTION! 🧪🔬
Ms. Nelson’s 5th-grade scientists took on the challenge of turning dull, old pennies into shiny, “brand-new” ones using just vinegar and salt! ✨ After conducting the experiment, we put our thinking caps on to test and discuss what happened. The big discovery? The vinegar and salt worked together to remove the dull outer layer of the penny, revealing the shiny copper underneath! To take it one step further, we used a steel nail, which collected tiny pieces of the copper removed from the pennies, proving our theory!



These are our Elementary character award winners from K-6th grade for Empathy! Congratulations and thank you for displaying great character!!!

Please wear green on Monday, January 27th for Laykas, a student from Tioga. His family has many ties to the Stanley Community.

This is our lost and found table at the high school. There's lots of items that need to find their original home - including multiple pairs of shoes, a full backpack, and a coat. If your child is missing something, encourage them to check the table. Next week we will clean off the table and donate the items.


Today, Mrs. Verano’s science class built DNA models using Twizzlers and gummy worms. Students have been learning that chromosomes are composed of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). As part of the activity, they had the opportunity to create their own DNA models. While connecting the base pairs, some students accidentally mismatched them, which led to discussions about mutations. It was exciting to see the students actively engaged and enjoying the learning process.











Baseball meeting tomorrow, Thursday, January 23rd, for students in grade 7th-12th in the commons. If interested please stop and see Coach Rice during 8th hour to get signed up.

There is lots of sickness going around our elementary school. If your child has a fever, vomiting or diarrhea please keep them home for 24 hours after symptoms/ fever subsides.

Shout out to Enbridge for the donation of bottled water to the Stanley School District. It is greatly appreciated.
