Tomorrow is pajama/comfy clothes day!
On Tuesday, December 12th the 6th grade along with a few 7th graders went to MTU to take part in the OneUP Copper Trail Festival. The Festival focused on STEM experiments and careers. Some popular things we saw included ice cream made from liquid nitrogen, a display about the Quincy mine, and the weather station. One of our students created a paper boat that held washers, and toothpicks and was almost able to break the load-bearing record. Some of the girls participated in the Oobleck experiment and the dancing robot was a big hit also. We only spent 2 hours there, but that short time was filled with many new ideas and a lot of learning. Special thanks to our chaperones Mrs. Sturos and Mrs. Kilpela – we could not have done it without you.
Mrs. Naglak and our students put on a wonderful Christmas program Wednesday night. The program went very well with a large crowd in attendance. Afterward, the PTO hosted a dessert social. We want to thank everyone who attended! A special thanks also goes out to Valerie Koubek for playing the piano for our program!
It's Flannel Day tomorrow at Stanton! Come to school in your holiday flannels!
Students in Mrs. Haworth's 6th grade science class worked through a science lab investigating photosynthesis. Students infused small pieces of spinach with sodium bicarbonate. They then placed the spinach pieces in a solution and observed them in both a light and dark environment. Students looked for evidence of photosynthesis and recorded their observations.
We are proud of our Stanton Wildcats Boys' Basketball Team. The boys worked hard throughout the season exhibiting great determination each and every game. We want to thank coach Ross Kinnunen for his leadership and dedication to the Wildcats over the past years.
We are looking for a long-term sub for one of our paraprofessional positions. Please call the school office for more information.

The 4th graders toured the Quincy Mine as part of their study about the Keweenaw’s copper mining history. They learned that the mine had 92 levels and the shaft was 9,000 feet deep. The tour took the 4th graders in on the seventh level & they learned that the entrance was called an adit because it comes in from the side rather than above. The adit was constructed by Michigan Tech & contains a small stream which allows all the water from the flooded levels below to exit the mine.
All of us here at Stanton Township Public Schools (E.B. Holman Elementary School) want to wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are so thankful for all of you. We love being a part of the community and partnering with our parents as we educate and grow our amazing students. Have a wonderful break! We will be open for school on Monday, November 27th.
