Happy May Day!


In addition to the academic curriculum, the Norfolk Middle School students are exposed to a strong character education program to promote right character and values. Opportunities for students to practice good character are provided through day-to-day interactions in classrooms and service learning projects. 
Fifth grade students on Team 1 celebrated May Day by getting involved in the community. Students created a GIANT May basket full of sweets and treats for a local mission.

May Day Snow


Neither rain nor snow nor gloom will stop May Basket Day! 
May Day is one of my favorite days. I shared with students the idea of showering neighbors with unexpected sweetness. After reading the history and traditions of May Day in literature class, students created May baskets. Hopefully students are ringing doorbells after class today. They liked the idea of "ding and dash" and the snow was not going to stop their fun.
