Let's Move Too

The Let’s Move Flash Dance was held May 3, 2011 for select middle schools to help encourage increasing physical activity and staying healthy. Students in Mrs. May's 5th Grade EAST Class decided that they want to move too. Team members have learned the national dance and are teaching other students on select days at lunch recess. They hope to have a special performance of the dance during King’s Next Top Model (EAST Fashion and Talent Show highlighting Juvenile Diabetes).

Cartridges to Carepacks

The Green Team in Mrs. Cagle's Class helped collect, count, and load over 245 toner and printer cartridges. The cartridges have been taken to Cartridge World and the exchange will allow 16-20 troops to receive care pack from Avon (hygiene products and a personal note from King EAST). The proceeds from the purchase of the packs will benefit the USO.

Neither Rain, Sleet or Snow

For months, the King EAST Running and Walking Team has been looking forward to the Little Rockers Marathon but hadn't checked the weather. Only one team member showed up on the rainy race day, Timiya (pictured with medal and certificate). All students that registered received their Little Rockers T-shirt.

Lego and Robotics Club Finally A Reality

The Lego and Robotics Club (Nichols' 5th Grade Leadership Team) finally received a mindstorm kit to prepare for possible competition next year. Many students involved in the project have been expressing interest in lego and robotics for over 2 years. Finally, the school assistant principal heard about their interests and made the project a reality.

No Bullying Team Creates Poster

The No Bullying Team lead by Alexis (Mrs. Harris's 5th Grade) has created one of two posters to put up throughout the school at the request of the Counselor's Office. Their second poster includes assistance from two 5th Grade artists (Diago and Cassiepea) and Jade, one of the students who participated in Adobe Photoshop Training this school year. The team hopes to complete the project before the school year ends and if not pass it on to fourth grade students that can submit the poster for EAST Conference next year.

Check back soon to see a video of the no bullying play!!!
