Nellie Ludemann, the Educator/ Program Coordinator for the Seneca Falls Historical Society, stopped by the school today to do her amazing Colonial Days presentation to our 4th grade! She really made Colonial Times come alive for our students!
Students in 4th grade ELA conducted a gallery walk today to figure out what they are studying next! Students analyzed primary source documents and made inferences about what the documents were about. They enjoyed getting up and moving around!

Our third graders recently did a sorting activity where they had to decide whether to recycle, compost, trash, donate, or reuse the item. They loved it!
Students worked on segmenting compound words using snowmen with Ms. Puls on Tuesday, who wasn't thinking there would actually be snow that day in April when she planned the activity!
Put it on your calendars.

A little bit of Hollywood in Ovid.
After 17 years, Phil Marrella is retiring. Today was his last day with the South Seneca School District. He served as the Elementary School's Physical Education teacher, and until very recently, was the Dean of Students.
To show immense appreciation, his Physical Education teaching partner, Asa McMahon, collected donations from the teaching staff and presented a retirement gift to Phil this morning.
He received:
- Buffalo Bills travel bag
- A Josh Allen jersey
- A Syracuse Mets tickets good for any game and any seat
- A book about the 50 states
- A travel package
- Some goodies and a card with heartfelt messages signed from his colleagues.
What a haul — and well deserved! Best of luck in retirement Phil!
