Simpsonville Spotlight!
Mr. Hicks' Parent Newsletter: Winter Edition
Thank You!
Thank you to all of our parents and guardians who have helped make our first few weeks back from Winter Break so smooth! You'll find a couple of highlights from the past few weeks at Simpsonville Elementary below, as well as some important upcoming dates.
Bobcat Leaders!
Our staff regularly celebrates students who meet our school's BOBCAT Behavioral Expectations by recognizing Bobcat Leaders! All of our Bobcat Leaders have their picture prominently displayed on our Simpsonville Family Tree in our front lobby!
Lobby Re-Design and Benches!
Speaking of our lobby, it has been re-designed with the help of some student leaders! The benches that can be seen in our lobby came directly from our student Garden Crew's cap recycling program. If you and your family would like to contribute to our student's recycling program, check out the Simpsonville Bench Flier for additional information!
COSI Truck!
Our students had a hands-on experience with science when the Columbus Center of Science Inquiry (or COSI) mobile science lab came to Simpsonville earlier this month! Thanks to Simpsonville's PTO for volunteering with running stations at the event!
Spelling Bee!
Our Spelling Bee was held earlier this month. Class Spelling Bee winners competed against one other until a primary and intermediate winner were named. Congratulations to our winners: Jonathan Leonard and Tony Ratliff!
Champ's Skate Night!
Thanks to our Simpsonville PTO for hosting a fun skate in January!
National Handwriting Day!
An art class from Martha Layne Collins High School came to Simpsonville Elementary to celebrate National Handwriting Day! Our fourth grade students were taught calligraphy by an amazing group of their older peers!
