Aware May Final July 22 - Public Schools of Robeson County

Long Branch School
Long Branch Kindergarten Classes
went to The Children’s Museum of
Wilmington and had a great time.
They were able to explore the many
exhibits throughout the museum. The
students, parents and teachers all had
a wonderful experience!
Our First Graders have also
completed an extensive "Reading
Project" which is currently on display
in their school's library. The project
gave the first grade students the
opportunity to read a self-selected
book and complete a hands on book
report depicting the summary,
characters, setting and self-made
activity as an extension from the book.
This project consisted of several
reading vocabulary
terms that will better prepare the
students for tested areas.
The Second Grade Classes
enjoyed their trip to Lumber River
State Park for Hug-A-Tree Day! The
students learned about recycling, bees
and many other things related to the
environment. They went on a nature
walk and had a picnic lunch.
The Third Grade Students had a
fun and exciting time on their field trip
to Wonder Works at Myrtle Beach, SC.
Students rode bicycles that made 360
degree circles, they had a blast
making huge bubbles, rode a roller
coaster simulator, experienced a rope
course and enjoyed a fun game of
laser tag.
The Fourth Graders are working
on a project where they have to design
a solution to all the animals being
killed on interstate highways. They will
be sending them to the President
Obama.
Long Branch students ended the
month of April with our PBIS incentive
rewards. One student per grade level
had the opportunity to shadow a
teacher. Our County Commissioner,
Mr. Tom Taylor, had lunch with our
PBIS Lunch Bunch students. Mr.
Taylor not only had lunch with the one
student per grade level, but also
brought each student a little surprise,
a pencil and pen. All the students that
earned “Eagle Bucks” throughout the
month of April were able to spend their
“eagle bucks” at the “Eagle Nest”
Store.
Our 3rd and 4th grade students
and teachers are working hard
preparing for the EOG. Not only the
3rd and 4th grade students and
teachers working hard to prepare the
students, but the whole school is
pitching in. K-2 teachers and resource
teachers are helping out by tutoring in
3rd and 4th grade classes. The Pre-K
through 2nd Grade students is also
encouraging the 3rd and 4th grade
students through a variety of
ways! LET’S GO EAGLES!!
Long Branch Eagles always
are reminded of the school
motto: Learning Today For A
Better Tomorrow and they are
always striving to follow the
school's PBIS rules for safety,
organization, responsibility
and respectfulness.
