Gears are turning and circuits are buzzing! SBRSD students are learning about cutting-edge technology including robotics and electric vehicles!
Eighth-grade art students delved into the world of stencils, a powerful method for creating art. They explored the iconic street art of Banksy before designing their own silhouette stencils. Using water-based spray paint, acrylics, chalk, and paint markers, the students brought their unique personalities to life through art.
A huge thank you to the Undermountain PTO for putting on an incredible back-to-school carnival. The highlight of the event was undoubtedly the "sweet" welcome our students gave to Superintendent Ricca, who was an amazing sport and let himself be pied in the face. We're also incredibly grateful to Julia Devoti, Class of 2024, for her fantastic photos that captured all the fun!
The students in the NMC prekindergarten class had a wonderful first week of school. They had fun painting the first letter of their names for the "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Who is in our PreK room" bulletin board. They also used a mirror to draw and paint self-portraits, first making an outline with a black crayon and then painting with watercolors at the easels. The class is also looking forward to watching the two monarch caterpillars in the room emerge from their chrysalises and become butterflies.
Our incredible science students are thinking outside the box! They're using their knowledge of physics and engineering to build tensegrity structures. These mesmerizing sculptures seem to float, but are actually held in place by a precise balance of tension and compression.
Our SBRSD students and staff are showing off their school spirit.
Varsity Boys clinched their first victory of the season tonight at Gateway. A fantastic effort from both the Varsity and JV teams!

Getting ready for the new school year with a little help from our friends! Retired SBRSD teacher Carol Ide teamed up with 6th graders Fiona and Emma to plant flowers and beautify our campus. This is what community looks like! We can't wait to welcome all our students back.
