First graders in Mrs Koval’s class read the story If I Built a School by Chris Van Dusen. The boy imagines how he would design the ideal school including a zoo, water slide, hovering school desks, and a sky diving simulator. The first graders were challenged to design, create, and build their own dream school. They shared it with their classmates. First Grade ROCKS! #SpaldingSTEM #ForOurKids #SOARSpaldingEagles #WeAreSpalding

Today, Spalding STEM Academy's PTO held a Fun Run for us! This "Fun"draising event involved having students get pledges for them to walk for at least 30 minutes. Our course was set up in the park next to the school. We had amazing parent volunteers spread throughout the course to cheer everyone on. And we had water and a popsicle available too! It was an incredibly fun event! Thank you Spalding PTO for organizing the event! #SpaldingSTEM #ForOurKids #WeAreSpalding #SOARSpaldingEagles

Spalding STEM is pretty lucky! We have some amazing kids, like Everly! Earlier today, Everly Montgomery received an award from her bus driver- the award is just because she is AWESOME! Or more specifically, she is a joy to have on the bus, she is a great listener, and is very well behaved. Great job Everly! We are so glad you are a Spalding Eagle! @mollymntgmry #SpaldingSTEM #SOARSpaldingEagles #ForOurKids #WeAreSpalding
