Safe to say the inaugural Girls STEM Camp facilitated by Mrs. Allison Justice is a huge success! Mrs. Justice coined the phrase, "STEMinistas," and her Science Girls have learned about animals, fossils, trebuchets, static electricity, and bubbles. Great stuff!
Elementary Art Camp continues this week, and Mrs. Bellas's classroom is a hub of creative activity! Glad so many students could join us! Special thanks to Mrs. Bellas for her commitment and Mrs. Kowal for lending an extra set of helping hands!
MUES students in Mrs. Bellas's summer art camp enjoyed a live animal presentation from Wild African Hearts Farm on Tuesday. Campers are creating a wide variety of animal-themed art projects this week, including papier-mache creatures, patterned pet portraits, animal collages, and paper sculptures. #StudentEnrichment2023 #CreatingAwesome

Last Friday, for the first time ever, every grade level (pre-k through 12) was able to participate in Ag Awareness Day - an annual event where students can learn about agriculture through hands-on experiences with farm equipment like tractors of various sizes, as well as livestock and animals such as poultry, rabbits, reptiles, goats, pigs, cattle, and horses.

After reading Much Ado About Nothing in class, Mrs. Davis's Honors and CP English 10 classes experienced the magic of live performance through a performance and workshop by the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company through Muse Machine. Students had fun opportunities to choose how actors performed or interpreted specific scenes: Should Beatrice and Benedick have a rap battle or dance battle? Should Benedick hide in plain sight as a fountain or a statue? Should the Friar act like a baby or an old man? #CreatingAwesome
Milton-Union and Miami East students participated in a Shoes 4 the Shoeless event this morning, providing over 30 pairs of shoes for elementary-aged students. #ComMUnity
