During library class, Mrs. Rampone read the Red Clover book, "Honeybee" to grades K-4. To recap the story of a honey bee's life cycle, she collaborated with Ms. Cacciatore, and developed three differentiated lessons using the Bee Bots for grades K-2 and the Ozobots in grades 3 and 4.
Each lesson asked students to code their robot through the different stages of a honey bee's short life. It was a wonderful way to integrate technology. All of the students had fun making their bots buzz along.
The Slate Valley Universal Preschool Program will be conducting developmental screenings for children 0-5 years of age on Thursday March 31st at Benson Village School.
Screening involves activities that are both fun for young children and help us learn about a child’s motor, cognitive, and language skills. Vision and hearing will also be screened. We encourage any child aged 0-5 years that resides in Benson, Castleton, Fair Haven, Hubbardton, Orwell and West Haven who has not previously been screened to be screened.
If you plan to attend this screening, please call Benson Village School for an appointment.
Bingo! Last Friday, we had schoolwide Bingo. Here are some shots of the fun!

Today's Family Lunch was for Grades K and 1. Look at the turnout! It was fantastic to see families in our building today!
Sound Off! First graders recently enjoyed a visit from Wonderfeet Kids' Museum! Students listened to a story about sound and then participated in four station rotations exploring sound and vibrations! Thank you so much Wonderfeet for a fun afternoon!
The results of the budget recount are as follows:
Yes: 853
No: 861
Good afternoon,
Due to the close outcome of the SVUUSD budget vote (Yes: 852/No: 861), a recount has been requested to ensure the accuracy of the results. The recount will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Tuesday, March 8th at Fellowship Bible Church. We will provide an update with the results of the recount when they become available.
The Slate Valley Universal Preschool Program will be conducting developmental screenings for children 0-5 years of age on Tuesday March 8th and Wednesday March 9th at Fair Haven Grade School.
Screening involves activities that are both fun for young children and help us learn about a child's motor, cognitive, and language skills. Vision and hearing will also be screened. We encourage any child aged 0-5 years that resides in Benson, Castleton, Fair Haven, Hubbardton, Orwell and West Haven who has not previously been screened to be screened.
If the Fair Haven Grade School dates are not convenient, we will also be screening at Benson Village School on 3/31. Please choose the date or site that works best with your schedule and give that site a call for an appointment.
