Glen-Worden Elementary

The 2019-20 school year is off to a great start!
Many students got right to work on Opening Day!
It will be an active year!
With this being Teacher Appreciation Week, teachers and staff at Glen-Worden decided to turn that idea around a bit – nearly 40 cars marched through the area thanking parents for everything they are doing for students at home. The more than two-hour parade, filled with brightly decorated cars and trucks, wound through the bus routes in the Glen-Worden elementary zone and also traveled to the village to drive by homes of G-W students there. Teachers and staff honked horns as they went.
Smelf the Elf really messed things up this time! Today, the grade 3 students at Glen-Worden tried to help him out of the bind he put himself in. Smelf thought he’d be funny to lock up some Christmas cheer and decorations as a game, but ended up locking himself inside the Breakout EDU box! Luckily, he left clues around the room before getting stuck in the box! The third graders will have to solve the clues to unlock the box and free that silly elf so he can report back to Santa on time. Students will have to utilize skills such as critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and communication to solve the clues within 45 minutes.
