Golden Spike Elementary

Miss Bianca and students are practicing their Christmas song with bells!

Fifth-grade Chinese DLI students are practicing descriptive words. It is so fun to watch and hear their learning!

Second-grade STEM!!!

It is so fun to see each element of our school come to fruition. I especially love this! Students will be able to see how the air handling system works to control the temperature.

In STEM lab, Mrs. Volesky’s third graders read “The Magnificent Thing” and then created an invention to solve a problem! This is an in-home car wash!

Our first-graders performed a historical Halloween Program for their families on Thursday night. This is the first performance of Golden Spike Elementary and the 23rd year of this Halloween Program! Thanks to Mrs. Simpson for her talent in writing the program all those years ago, Mrs. Putnam for playing the piano, the first-grade teachers for teaching and supporting these efforts, Mrs. Anderson for helping with the art, our custodians for getting things set up, families for your support, and most of all our fantastic students for their energy and the joy they bring to us each day!

We loved having Big Blue come and help us start Red Ribbon Week and recognize healthy choices. Thanks to the PTO for organizing a fun week for us!

Thanks to our PTO for helping celebrate October birthdays!

There is no school on Thursday and Friday, October 13-14 due to fall break. Enjoy!

Our students get to go to Mrs. Anderson each week for art class and they love it!

Golden Spike Open House, in conjunction with Parent Teacher Conferences, will be held on Wednesday October 5 from 4:30-7:30. Come have a treat, check out the book fair, and tour the school. Invite your neighbors…especially those that don’t have students attending the school.

We have an upcoming clinic for flu and covid on 10/11 from 4-7 at Golden Spike Elementary. If you are interested, please sign up for a designated time and then make sure you print off the encounter form PRIOR to saving it. Please bring this with you along with your insurance card as this will save alot of time once you arrive. We will have flu as well as the pfizer bivalent covid vaccine. https://brhd.jotform.com/222655358098971
