Need ideas for getting your middle school students excited for math class? Ask our High Road School at Lockerman Middle School lead teacher, Joey! Mr. Joey's math lessons have been a fun way for students to learn and practice solving equations. Check out this picture recently captured during one of Mr. Joey's "Solve That Equation!" math lesson! In the photo, you can see Mr. Joey leading "Solve That Equation!" with our engaged High Road 8th graders at Lockerman Middle School. In short, students solve equations independently to score points and then shoot a ball into a basket or try [...]
Learn more about our school today. March is off to a great start at Sandy Hill Elementary! We have learned how to manage our emotions using our coping strategies and “worry buddies," which students had so much fun making (thank you Ms. Taylor). Students will continue to focus on developing their social and emotional regulation skills as the year progresses.
Because learning doesn't only happen within the four walls of the school, High Road School of Southern York is committed to providing community-based instruction opportunities to our students of transition age. Our students had the opportunity to put their hard work and learning into action as they shopped for ingredients needed to make their own lunches. Students planned the meal, made the grocery list, budgeted, shopped and prepared their meals. The results were tasty!
High Road School of Southern York had a very special visitor, Miles, a Siberian Husky and his handler! Students had the opportunity to meet Miles one on one and spend time asking questions, petting, reading and enjoying his company! We are excited to be able to offer this experience to our students on a regular basis. We can't wait for Miles to visit again!
This week, students, Jamani and Tynan, helped to sand and paint a snack tray for the school with Mr. Caliri, our Transition Coordinator. Learn more about High Road School today!
Throughout our unit on Matter, our 4th and 5th grade students have been provided with different opportunities to practice aspects of and demonstrate their understanding of performance expectations aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), for example: 5-PS1-4 Conduct an investigation to whether the mixing of two or more substances results in new substances. One of the lesson objectives was to identify different changes that can happen to matter. Students first learned how a chemical change is different from a physical change. To wrap up the lesson, we conducted an experiment with a baking soda mixture and blackberries. Students [...]
On March 9, 2021, High Road at Denton Elementary School had the opportunity to celebrate one of our students' big accomplishments. Nathan is one of our 4th graders who earned 50 days on Blue Level and a Day 50 Blue party! Earning 50 days on Blue is a huge accomplishment and we are beyond proud of Nathan for reaching this milestone of success. Nathan was very excited to reach 50 days on Blue and he was very happy to share his success with his class- he even wore a blue shirt on his special day! Our class was excited [...]
Two special education teachers at Graham Academy were featured on FOX 56 WOLF. Both Olivia Caraballo and Amanda Beck graduated from Wilkes University last spring. Not only did they walk into a new classroom and profession, but they found themselves in an entirely new world when coronavirus hit. The Graham Academy is a special education school that focuses on elementary students with autism and behavioral challenges. "Special Ed is already so different than what you would do in a normal classroom, so it's really adapting to what they need and also keeping them safe," Caraballo said. "It is difficult with this [...]
Students were practicing with our play money on learning the skill of how to count change back to a customer. This was a hands-on lesson that was a lot of fun and the class seemed to catch on quickly. Handling money is a vital life skill that all students will need to be proficient in before entering the workforce.
