Local author, Jill Austin, visited our North Scituate second graders in December to share her fantastic winter/Christmas books; "What Does Santa Want For Christmas?" and "Every Snowflake Wants To Be A Snowball".
Classrooms were encouraged to decorate their classroom doors at North Scituate Elementary with their grade-level partner. Two of the rules were that students must help and must have a holiday theme. Mrs. Soccio was the judge. She had such a hard decision that she selected 4 of her favorite doors- Kindergarten & 1st grade doors. Thank you to all of the classrooms that participated in this fun contest!
Last month, 1st graders at North Scituate Elementary spent time learning all about shared traits during a science lesson through hands-on matching activities and interactive read-alouds!
Great job Hope students! Keep earning those positive office referrals!
Congratulations to all of our North Scituate Elementary students who received positive office referrals for great behavior in December!
In December, The Scituate Police Department organized a successful Stuff a Cruiser Event with our elementary schools. Thank you to the Scituate Community for supporting this event which provides toys/games for our Adopt a Family program. It's wonderful to be part of a giving and supportive community!

Students in Mrs. Dailey’s Topics in College Math class concluded their study of probability by creating games of chance and then inviting Mrs. Kennedys grade 7 math class to visit and play them. Students calculated the theoretical probabilities of their games in advance, then ran the games for the 7th graders while keeping data on the outcomes, and then compared their results to the theoretical values.
SCITUATE PUBLIC SCHOOLS WILL HAVE A TWO HOUR DELAY ON MONDAY, JANUARY 8th. THERE IS NO AM PRE-K.
Huge thank you to our North Scituate PTO and volunteers for making our annual Christmas in the Village event a success. Our school organizes a Bake Sale, Raffles, Duck Game, and crafts (reindeer food and snow) for children. It was great to see our families come to this event as well as former North Scituate Students who volunteered to run the craft stations. Team effort to make this event possible! This event raised over $1200 for our school.
Mrs. Battey's 8th graders participated in a lab that was an extension of an article they read on magnetic fields! Each class was amazed to learn that there was iron in birds. They were asked to brainstorm how to extract the iron from Total cereal. First, they used a hand lens to try to view the iron. Then, they thought if they crushed the cereal, the iron would be attracted to the magnet. Again, no success. Then they thought of adding water.. SUCCESS!
Clayville, Hope, and North Scituate Elementary schools all enjoyed their school holiday chorus concerts before the winter break! It was wonderful to see so many smiling faces!
Clayville's Mrs. Forgue, and her second graders, were incredibly busy before the break! Students practiced their red card words from Heggerty with snow writing! Red card words are not decodable, unlike most English words. Instead, they're words that students need to develop automatic sight word recognition for, which they do by looking at irregular spelling patterns and phoneme-graphing mapping each word. In Mrs. Forgue's class, the focus is on literacy, but students build knowledge quickly with sensory-based activities like shaving cream writing!
Yesterday 8th grade students had the chance to explore our high school's CTE academies! Students were able to rotate to different classrooms and learn about the experiences that they can be a part of when they enroll in Entrepreneurship, Biomedical Science, Engineering, or Computer Science at SHS!
Even with the power outages that took place before our winter break, art students were determined to finish their art projects. Students even used their phone flashlights so that they could keep painting!
