Dixie Magnet Elementary
Where the impossible comes true
Principal Update
Good morning! I hope that you and your family are enjoying the weekend together. Yesterday there were many Dixie fans cheering on our amazing basketball team. The team played their hearts out but fell 10 points short at the end of the game. We are so proud of our team and their season and we're already making plans for next year! Great work Dixie Dolphins!
This past week our fourth graders traveled to Carlisle, KY to spend two days at 4H camp. They researched pond life, dissected owl pellets, went hiking, completed a ropes course and so much more! Tons of memories were made and we were so excited to welcome them back when they returned on Thursday. Thank you to all the adults that were able to chaperon and make this trip a success! This is always a big trip and a fantastic opportunity for our kids to bond with classmates, develop new skills, and deepen their appreciation for nature and sustainability.
Spring Break is just around the corner, but before that, we have a packed week ahead. Report cards will be sent home on Wednesday, and our fifth graders will present their ideas to judges as part of their Shark Tank PBL Unit. Additionally, we're eagerly anticipating Career and Arts Day at the end of the week—a fantastic opportunity for everyone.
We look forward to a week of learning and growing together. Thank you for your continued partnership as we work together to reach our full potential and to provide opportunities for our students to be a positive force in our changing world!
Sincerely,
Cynthia Bruno, Principal
