6th grade science students work on building towers in Mr. Thedford's class. The students learned about engineering practices and how well different designs work. Great job guys!
Mrs Burkett’s Pre-K class has had a busy week learning all the new things. They’ve done everything from successfully walking in a line, eating in the cafeteria, to recognizing the first letter in their name. They also are practicing recognizing the first letter of their name and strengthening their hand muscles with play-doh. Did you know they also learned how to read the word yellow? No wonder they need a nap!

Our secondary school principals attended the TASSP Summer Workshop this week where they participated in research-based professional learning that developed their capacity to create innovative solutions to the ever-changing educational needs of students.
Starting next week our Rice Athletics summer strength and conditioning format will change. We will have 2 sessions available: 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM. The morning session will be primarily girls, or guys that have evening conflicts, and the evening session will be primarily boys, or girls who have morning conflicts. We are hopeful this will help many of our student-athletes who are having a difficult time making the workouts. We have not had a very large amount of middle school student-athletes attending the sessions either. Middle school student-athletes are certainly welcome to be a part of the training sessions as well. See you all next week!
That’s a wrap for track and volleyball at Rice Bulldog Summer Sports Camps. Here are some photos from today. Next up, Youth Football Camp at the end of July. We have enjoyed getting to spend the last couple of weeks with some of these amazing kids!
