5th grade students signed the Declaration of Independence. They absolutely loved being able to recreate the actions of our Founding Fathers. Students had the opportunity to use an authentic quill and inkwell. The novelty of it really made a memory for them!

Harmony left it all on the stage today!
Harmony traveled to Nevada to compete and came home with a First Place Win! They were down a member, several powered through sickness, and everyone came together to support one another and put on one of their best performances this season.
"It was a great day, productive clinic/critique," said Director, Ashley Bates. "And the judges were very complimentary of our small school and commented that we performed at a level they would expect from schools triple our size."
Dinner & Dessert Theater is March 11. Be sure to get your tickets!

Ms. Miller is such a positive presence at Green Ridge R8! As a FACS teacher, she teaches some of the most important life skills. Today, her students were learning strategies to cope with anxiety. She had them practice progressive muscle relaxation. As quiet music was playing, she talked the students through the process. Thank you, Ms. Miller, for all you do to help our students!
Ms. Bates and Ms. Allen provide live music for Harmony as they prepare for their next performance! Lots of talent in that room!!!
