🍀☘️More St. Patty's day fun was had yesterday at our Milton ESC units! Miss Embry and Mrs. Peltier's classes came together to make treats and hang out. They started by making Lucky-Charms rice krispies, and then enjoyed their snacks with some festive themed bingo!
It's great to see our students come together and interact with others they may not see every day. The group had a blast!🌈

"How demanding is running your own business?" - A question these Covington students had answered firsthand from local entrepreneur Amber Stephenson. The answer: VERY, but it's all worth it! Amber owns Rosebuds Real Food, a local store selling all-natural, gluten-free, and non-GMO spices and seasonings. 🫚🍂
Amber shared the real story behind business ownership including the risks, the rewards, and everything in between. She made sure these students knew that it's not all sunshine and roses, but those willing to put in the work can make it happen!
Huge thanks to Amber for making a lasting impact on these students curious about entrepreneurship. Your energy is contagious, and the free samples were a big hit! ✨

🦖 Visiting ancient dinosaur graveyards to solve mysteries of the Mesozoic era
🌕 Taking a seat in a future moon colony and look back at our home planet.
🌊 Swimming through a breathtaking underwater excursion

Mrs. Durbins class took advantage of the nice weather window last week to get out of the classroom and learn about birds!🐦
Each week, the class reads a themed news article, and last weeks was about The Great Backyard Bird Count. Everyone created their own bird feeders out of sugar cones, Cheerios, and peanut butter and then watched them attract all different types of birds. It was a perfect excuse relax outdoors and enjoy the sunshine! 🌞🐦⬛🦤🦅

Miss Embry's class took full advantage of 'Fun Friday' yesterday and headed out to Boscoe's Place for lunch!🥘
Miss Embry and our Special Education Supervisor, Katie, wanted to give the students a chance to practice their real-life communication skills by ordering their own food and using menu prices to learn what certain items cost. A little blend of practicing what they've learned in the classroom, and enjoying some great food while at it.😋
Thank you Boscoe's Place for having us!

Mrs. Ruzicka's class at Tipp City spent this week learning about Lunar New Year and how 2026 is the 'Year of the Horse', a rare, energetic, and transformative year!
Today, they made a snack that no one in class has tried yet: peanut butter noodles 🍜According to Mrs. Ruzicka, when she introduced the recipe everyone seemed very skeptical about the ingredients. However, after they combined every ingredient and tasted the complete dish, they LOVED it. Everyone had seconds.
To cap off their week long lesson, a student chose to watch Kung-Fu Panda 2 due to its ties to ancient China. Each student took home a 'Year of the Horse' red envelope with some good luck cash!

Mrs. Scherbyna's class received donated art kits from We Care Arts, and they put them to great use making hand-crafted bird feeders!🐦⬛ Using their own selection of paint colors, glue, and popsicle sticks, they built their feeders from scratch.
Projects like these help develop our students focus and fine-motor skills, and everyone went home with a new bird feeder. Win-win! 🗸
