🍎 Mrs. Hunter’s PreK students have had a lot of fall fun this month! Families even had a chance to visit and explore seasonal learning, complete autumn crafts and outdoor festival activities.
Children painted craft paper, posed behind a cardboard scarecrow cutout, and operated a mechanical hand-crank apple peeler. Outdoors, students played with corn kernels, played yard games, and enjoyed fresh kettle corn. Visiting parents participated and joined in the celebration of the fall season.
Thank you to all the parents and family members who spent the day learning and playing. These shared classroom experiences build strong connections between home and school while giving our youngest lions a sweet fall experience. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

🦉 Wildlife rehabilitation expert Lynn Sciumbato returned to Glenn A. Duffy Elementary this year with her feathered friend! First graders met Sydney, a Barred Owl who lives at the Morning Star Wildlife Rehabilitation Center after a collision left her with a broken wing.
Mrs. Sciumbato explained where owls live, what they eat, and how they make their calls, while giving kids a rare close look at the majestic creature. They marveled at Sydney's distinctive face, dark eyes, and radiant feather patterns while learning how wildlife rehabilitators care for animals that cannot survive on their own.
Seeing local wildlife up close helps our first graders connect classroom learning to the natural world. Thank you to Lynn Sciumbato and Morning Star Wildlife Rehabilitation Center for sharing Sydney with our students. What a hoot! 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

🎨 Lily (Kindergarten)
Lily colored her bus with a yellow frame and red front grille, paired with a superhero wearing a light pink cape, yellow shirt, and magenta pants. Hand-drawn green grass adds a finishing touch.
🎨 Leighton (1st Grade)
Leighton gave the yellow bus red accents and created a superhero with a light purple-pink cape, light pink legs, and blue boot details against a white background.
🎨 Ezra (2nd Grade)
Ezra added an original American flag on a flagpole beside the superhero. Purple and blue sky shading and green ground surround the hero, who wears a red cape, yellow top, and blue pants and boots.
At home, families can help children practice the SAFE routine every morning:
1) Stay at least ten feet—five giant steps—away from the curb.
2) Always wait for the bus to stop completely and the bus driver to signal it’s safe to board.
3) Face forward after finding a seat on the bus.
4) Exit the bus after it stops, wait for the bus driver to signal it’s safe to cross, and then look left-right-left for cars before crossing a street in front of the bus, never behind.
Congratulations to Lily, Leighton, and Ezra! Thank you to our Glenn A. Duffy Elementary families for practicing bus safety habits and supporting our transportation team every day. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

🏆 Today we join schools nation-wide in celebrating National Coaches Appreciation Day by recognizing Coach Pittman, Coach Q, and Coach Douglas. Each of our Glenn A. Duffy Elementary teacher coaches received gift certificates courtesy of Gravette Sonic as a thank you for rocking their role. It will be perfect to grab-and-go refreshments as they wrap up PE classes and head out to afternoon high school practice.
For our youngest Lions, physical education is where a lifelong relationship with health and movement begins. It's here K–2 students learn essential motor skills and spatial awareness. As well as the basics of taking turns, staying active, and playing as a team. Beyond the elementary gym, these same educators step onto high school courts and fields to coach varsity and junior-level teams.
Balancing the boundless energy of elementary kiddos with competitive high school athletics requires patience and adaptability. Traits they model for our young athletes every day. So we want to extend sincere gratitude to our Glenn A. Duffy Elementary coaching staff:
🏀 Melissa Pittman, Girls Basketball Assistant Coach
⚽ Ryan Quintana, Girls Soccer Head Coach
🏀 Cian Douglas, Girls Basketball and Track Assistant Coach
🎓 Emma Bates, Student Intern
Thank you to these educators for laying a healthy foundation for our youngest students while pouring their time and energy into our district's athletic programs. Special thanks to Gravette Sonic Store #4183 for providing free gifts to our teachers and supporting district athletics! 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools

🧸 Students in Tonie Nelson's class earned a stuffed animal celebration after reaching 100 percent participation in Phonics during September. Every child took part in daily reading lessons to help the entire group meet their monthly target.
This achievement is part of the Leader in Me framework used across Gravette Schools, where classes establish a Wildly Important Goal each month. To track their progress, students colored in individual sections of a class guitar poster whenever they participated in Phonics instruction. Once every child completed their assigned piece, the finished artwork showed that the class met its objective. Setting specific goals and following daily routines helps young learners build accountability and celebrate shared success.
Congratulations to these students for working together and sticking to their daily habits. 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools
