Way to go, Eden!!!

Eighth grade HMS WEB (Welcome EveryBody) Leaders went out in the community and put in some hard work helping the Sleep in Heavenly Peace organization with their fall bed build on Wednesday night. Awesome to see them take the lead with positive and generous attitudes! Great job, Golden Eagles! (Thank you to Kari Brenner for the great photos!) #GoEagles #AberdeenPublicSchools 💙🦅💛

These students were selected in Mrs. Lechner's class while we started learning about the FISH Philosophy. The philosophies of: Be There, Play, Choose Your Attitude, and Make Their Day. We had all the 6th graders incorporate how they could utilize these philosophies to make their school days better for themselves and others!

7th grade students using NGSS Science and Engineering Practices to complete the "Marshmallow Challenge" where they needed to build the tallest tower to support a marshmallow using spaghetti, string, and tape.

Miss Walks’ 7th grade community building puzzle competition! We be puzzlin’!



Our 8th grade students had a fun, hands-on experience practicing group communication! Puzzle masters worked together with their classmates, using teamwork, clear directions, and encouragement to successfully put together their kiddie puzzles. It was a great way to see communication and collaboration skills in action!





Ms. Rush's math students took on the Impossible Circle Challenge. A fun way to practice problem-solving, teamwork, and communication!
