The Academic Fair at Steenrod today was a fantastic experience for our students as they finally got to present about a topic that interested them! Thank you to our judges who gave their time this morning to listen to the amazing presentations and make the difficult decision to choose the winning projects.











The West Virginia Leaders of Numeracy Educator Network includes Mrs. Daugherty and Mrs. Wade. Both teachers signed up for this initiative with the goal of learning to enhance their mathematical content knowledge and pedagogy. They participate in virtual meetings, attend trainings on select Saturdays, build units of instruction, and will prepare and lead professional learning sessions in Ohio County. This past week, they introduced a thinking activity which engaged their students in collaborative work and problem solving. Steenrod is lucky to have these two wonderful teachers!





Kindergarten is busy today working on holiday crafts! Thank you teachers and parents for making the time during this busy season to make it magical for our students!
