In fourth grade, students use benchmark fractions like 1/2, 1/3, 2/3, 1/4, and 3/4 to help them make decisions about rounding. By comparing a fraction to these benchmarks, they can determine whether a number is closer to 0, 1/2, or 1, making estimation more efficient!

Congratulations to LVMS 7th Grader Penelope Draghi!

This week at OFRS we participated in Wellness Week with a variety of activities with the help of our PTO. Today Bowser visited during recesses and the students did dance movements. During lunches, our local farmer Nicole Ort gave a presentation on the importance of fruits and vegetables in our diet.
We are so thankful for our PTO who fufill teacher grants in order to best support and instruct our students. Pictured here are students with their new stand up desks which lead to increased engagement and better academic performance compared to sitting for extended periods.
Due to the weather and road conditions, District Schools will be closed today, Thursday, February 6, 2025.
