Fall Sports Preview

Thank you to the sponsor of our Science Camp last month! Northwest Earth and Space Sciences Pathways (NESSP) sent all the supplies that were needed for camp.
NESSP is one of NASA’s Science Activation Teams and is funded through the NASA Science Mission Directorate.
NASA centers have traditionally acted as hubs for professional development for teachers, access points for NASA educational materials, and on-site experiences for teachers and students. NESSP serves as a “virtual NASA center," giving students and teachers in our region access to innovative and informative educational materials that engage student interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).

Registration is tomorrow, August 6th, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Shiloh Multipurpose room. The elementary doors will be unlocked at 10 a.m.
Parents will be able to register students online using school Chromebooks and WiFi.
You may drop off any physical or other required forms for your student.
Registration is due by August 10th. If your student is not returning to Shiloh, please contact your student office so they can be exited.

High School Practices

A peek at the transformation in progress. Can't wait to see our students back in action on this beautiful new surface! Stay tuned for the final reveal.





Partnership in Parenting gathered for their first group connection of their new program year at the Newman Regional Library. To continue the Summer Reading Program theme of "Read, Renew, Repeat," this group's focus was based on the board book "The Life of a Plastic Bottle" by Suzanne Fossey.
The children helped Miss Lori read about all the different adventures an empty plastic bottle had around the neighborhood. Finally, the bottle became an upcycled bird feeder. The PIP-Squeaks used their small muscle skills to decorate their own plastic bottles with tape and markers before filling them with seed. When the activity was complete, the children were amazed that the bird feeders they made looked just like the one in the story!
An end-of-summer bash with games and entertainment will be held 10 AM - 3 PM (with pizza at noon) at the Newman Library on Saturday, August 3, to celebrate the conclusion of the Summer Reading Program. PIP will also be partnering with GOAL and the library to host a Touch-a-Truck event and car seat safety check at the Newman Community Center that day from 12 - 2 PM.

Mark your calendar for opportunities on August 19. First day of attendance for students is August. 21.

August 19, 2024
4:00-5:00 pm
The Hidden in Plain Sight initiative helps parents, educators, and caregivers spot signs of at-risk behaviors using an interactive display of a teenagers bedroom. After walking through the display, participants will learn more about adolescent development and common signs of substance use. The presentation educates and empowers parents to communicate with their children about at-risk behaviors that could lead to substance use disorders. A strong parent-teen relationship is the most effective tool to prevent youth substance use!
Narcan and informational resources will be available.
Please contact: Nicki Hanks at nickih@hourhouserecovery.org with any questions.
