Hurricane Ian
Our Nassau County School District leaders, administrators, and staff worked hard running our two evacuation shelters, Hilliard Middle-Senior High and Callahan Middle School. With Wildlight Elementary on stand bye to be our third evacuation shelter.
Milky Way in Science
Mrs. Thomas at Hilliard Middle-Senior taught a hands-on lesson where students learned about plate tectonics. Students used a milky way bar to demonstrate how plate tectonics change surfaces over time. The students were engaged and enjoyed the lesson. It was a plus that students got a sweet treat at the end.
"Post-It Note Event"
September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month. Students at West Nassau High School participated in a "Post-It Note Event" in which they created a visual representation of support for suicide prevention by building a "Post-It Note" installation in a shared space. Students left positive messages to brighten someone's day!
Hilliard Elementary Open House
Hilliard Elementary families enjoyed attending the open house!
Roof Top Campers
Emma Love Hardee Principals Ms. Smith and Mrs. Clark camped on the roof of Emma Love Hardee. Students raised $35,000 for their school Boosterthon, and the principals promised to sleep on the roof! Way to go, Little Pirates!
Constructing Knowledge
Wildlight Elementary 1st-grade students in Mrs. Ballard & Mrs. Rowell’s classes were hard at work constructing words, sentences, and numbers using base ten materials & construction-themed activities! Hard hats & vests help the students become immersed in the fun!
A Royal Visit
Yulee Elementary 3rd graders had royalty on campus this week! While reading about King Midas, his sister, wife, and daughter came to tell his story! Then the children got to become Summarizing Kings and Queens themselves!
Positive Para
Yulee Primary's BJ Taylor always ensures the students (and staff) start the day with a smile! From costumes to playlists, she does it all!
