Spencer County Elementary School

Our SCES Cheer Team is ready for state! We are so proud of our team.

🎅🎄 Pajama Day + Santa = The Perfect Ending to Rudolph Week! 🎄🎅 Our Cubs wrapped up Rudolph Week in the coziest way possible with Pajama Day and a special visit from Santa himself! 💤✨🎁 Smiles, laughter, and holiday cheer filled the halls as we celebrated together. Through the fun, our students shined as Engaged Citizens and Effective Communicators, sharing joy, kindness, and excitement with friends and staff. Moments like these remind us how special it is to celebrate as a school family. 💙🐾 We love opportunities to love, learn, and lead—especially during such magical moments! ❄️✨

🎄🍪 Gingerbread Day Magic! 🍪🎄 What a sweet and successful Gingerbread Day in Mrs. Lawton's classroom yesterday! The students truly shined as Active Collaborators and Problem Solvers as they planned their gingerbread designs, budgeted for materials, and made thoughtful changes along the way. 💡📐 Creativity was everywhere as our Cubs worked together, shared ideas as Effective Communicators, and brought their gingerbread creations to life. From math and planning to reflection and teamwork, this hands-on experience was packed with meaningful learning — and lots of holiday fun! ✨🏠 We are so proud of our Empowered Learners and the enthusiasm they brought to the day. This is what it looks like when we love, learn, and lead at SCES!

🎄✨ Glow Day Fun in Mrs. Abell & Mrs. Mooney’s Classes! ✨🎄 Learning was glowing bright with a little Christmas fun! 💡🎅 Students rotated through exciting stations, glow-painted their creations, and shared lots of laughs along the way. As Active Collaborators and Empowered Learners, our Cubs worked together, tried new things, and let their creativity shine. Activities like these also gave them opportunities to be Effective Communicators while working through each station. 🌟🎨 What a joyful way to love, learn, and lead at SCES! 💙

🎶✨ Bravo to Our Amazing Chorus! ✨🎶

Please take a moment to watch this incredible chorus performance led by our music teacher, Ms. Winemiller: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10qFKKVgyLoFIyUvkgvaZzL7E0LIyX7Eq/view?usp=sharing! Our talented Cubs truly shined as Effective Communicators, using their voices to express music, emotion, and confidence on stage. 🎤💙

Through practice and teamwork, they also showed what it means to be Active Collaborators, supporting one another to create something beautiful together. Moments like this remind us how the arts help our students grow as Empowered Learners. 🌟

We are so proud of our Cubs as they continue to love, learn, and lead—one song at a time! 🐾🎶

There will be a Public Hearing to present the proposed District Facility Plan. The hearing will take place at 5:00 pm on Tuesday, December 16, 2025 before the Regular Monthly Meeting which will begin at 6:00 pm. The purpose of this hearing is to inform the public about the proposed facility plan and to gather feedback from community members. All interested parties are encouraged to attend and participate. A copy of the proposed District Facility Plan will be available for review at the hearing.

Our Chorus and Percussion students performed their Holiday songs this afternoon in the main hall. We will be posting that this week! They will perform live tonight at 6:00 PM at Taylorsville Elementary. A huge thank you to TES for your support!

🦌✨ Rudolph Week is almost here at SCES! ✨🦌 We are so excited to kick off a week full of holiday fun, school spirit, and LOTS of Rudolph cheer! ❤️ A HUGE thank you to our amazing PTO for making the magic happen, every student will receive an adorable pair of antlers to wear on Monday to help us launch Rudolph Week in style! 🥰🦌 We can’t wait to see our halls filled with smiling Cubs, glowing red noses, and festive antlers as we celebrate together. Nothing says Cub Pride like spreading joy and holiday cheer! 💙 #SCESCubs #RudolphWeek #ThankYouPTO #LoveLearnLead #HolidayFun 🦌✨

Due to safety considerations, we will not be able to hold today’s chorus concert. Our top priority is always the safety of our Cubs and Cub families, and we believe this is the best decision for everyone. The good news is that we are excited to share an alternate plan. On Monday, we will host a Holiday Concert in the main hall. Chorus and percussion members are invited to wear festive holiday attire to help bring the spirit of the season to our performance. We will record a high-quality video of the concert with a student audience so families can still enjoy and celebrate our students’ hard work. Families will be able to watch the performance using the link that will be shared once the video is posted. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility, and we hope this special performance will help make up for the change in plans. Thank you for your continued support of our Cubs! 💙🐾

🎁✨ Spreading Holiday Cheer, Cub Style! ✨🎁 During Library this month, Mrs. Glass and Mrs. Katherine helped our Cubs participate in the My Dear Friend program — a beautiful initiative that fights loneliness in nursing homes during the holiday season. 💌❤️ Our students poured their hearts into writing messages of kindness, and together we created HUNDREDS of cards to send out this December. 🎄🤗📝 We also used this moment of giving to kick off our 12 Days of Christmas for our amazing SCES staff… because nothing says Cub Pride like choosing to love, learn, and lead through giving to others. 🐾🎅 So proud of our Cubs and the joy they’re spreading this season! ❄️💙

❄️🎨 Winter Magic in the Courtyard! 🎨❄️ Our 5th grade Cubs were Active Collaborators and helped transform our courtyard into a cozy winter wonderland! ⛄✨ With teamwork, they filled the windows with beautiful winter scenes that bring so much joy to our school. We love watching our Cubs love, learn, and lead in every season! 💙🐾
