I hope
everyone was able to enjoy some time off with their family over the winter
break. Hopefully the kids got a chance to spend some time outside.
Prior to the break Scotty
Fura, a 5th grader from Stonehedge Elementary, visited our second graders. He
explained to them how, with only one arm, he has been able to do most
things we do, just in his own way. He read Scotty's Way to us, which was written by his mother, Jennifer
Fura. Scotty raced 4 students to see who could do 10 one-armed push-ups
the fastest. His message to the 2nd graders was to never give up; you can do
anything if you persevere.

We now have almost 50 projects that are slated to be entered into East Hill’s 4th
Annual Science Fair. There is still time if your child/children are interested!
Just have them stop in the office for a packet of information.
