Stanfield Elementary

The Stanfield Elementary School held their Winter Concert last Thursday. It was a wonderful time for students, staff, and parents.

Everything you saw at the concert was done by the students. They did the skit, helped invent all the actions for the songs, and even did all the decorations. The bucket band started practice about 6 weeks ago. Buckets were donated buy ACE Hardware and the school bought all the drum sticks. 62 students have been involved and are rotating through to learn different rhythms. We hope to continue to expand the program. They will be playing at half time in four upcoming varsity basketball games. 

A huge thank you to Mrs. Milburn for working so hard with the students, thinking outside the box, and giving students an opportunity to lead.

The following are students who helped out during the concert.

• Hosts: Khira Kreitzer, Savanah Stover, Katelyn, McFetridge, Kiera Sharp

Check out the article in the East Oregonian on "Harvesting the Power of Pennies." It's about Phoenix Davis and his determination, along with his classmates, to raise money for the Stanfield Food Basket.

The students set a goal of $1,000, and they surpassed it by raising $1,219.16.

Great job students and staff. We are so very proud!

Stanfield Elementary School held our Thanksgiving lunch on Thursday, November 15^th. We had students and staff from various departments, along with Board Members, come and help serve, stock food, take tickets, and clean.  It was nice to interact with the students, staff, and parents.

On the menu were rolls, fruit salad, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, turkey, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. We would like to extend a thank you to our incredible cafeteria staff, Stephenie Grogan, Lisa Logan, and Angie Ellis for their dedication to the students and staff at Stanfield Elementary. The food was delicious.

Once again we served over 350 people, including students, staff, and parents/community members. Thank you so much for your support of the school, students, and staff.

Stanfield Elementary School will be having a penny drive to help raise money for our community. The penny drive shows young people that they have the ability to make the world a better place by encouraging a caring culture at our school.

Each student will collect pennies, bring them to their class, and we will tally each classroom’s total number of pennies. The class that collects the most pennies will get a PIZZA PARTY!

The Penny Drive will last through October and November. We will use the funds to give back to our community.

La Escuela Primaria Stanfield va a patrocinar una colección de centavos (pennies), para ayudar con dinero a nuestra comunidad. La colección de centavos le va a enseñar a los niños a que ellos tienen la habilidad de hacer del mundo un lugar mejor donde vivir, y les ayuda a entender el cariño y la cultura de nuestra escuela.                  

Cada estudiante va a ayudar a juntar centavos, traerlos a su clase, y cada clase va a contar todos los centavos que hayan juntado, y la clase que haya juntado más centavos va a tener una CELEBRACIÓN CON PIZZA!

La colección va a durar todo el mes de Octubre 15 y Noviembre 15. Los fondos que se recauden se usarán para dar de regreso a nuestra comunidad.

Stanfield Elementary School has been awarded a $14,588 grant from the Wildhorse Foundation. We are excited to move forward with implementation in the coming months. The grant funds will be used to purchase four ActivPanel Promethean Boards for teachers in kindergarten through second grade. This new technology will be used in classrooms to enhance and activate learning.

5th graders Landon Bailey and John Putnam finished the "Stanfield Strong" Marathon 26.2 Challenge. Both students chose to run 106 total laps on the track during their morning recess breaks to complete an entire Marathon of 26.2 miles! This is the second year in a row for both.

Attaway boys to show true Tiger GRIT!
