Mount Everett's Spirit Week "wrapped up" with a pep rally!
Thank you so much for the generosity of everyone who contributed to the Rotary Interact 2021 winter food drive. We are so proud to be part of such a wonderful and caring community!

6th grade students showed their understanding of Eukaryotic Cells and the function of cell organelles in Science. Students were given the choice to create a 3D physical model or create a digital version using a C.A.D. Program.
Great job to our 7/8 music performers at last night's band and chorus concert.

Eighth grade students have been learning about the carbon cycle and climate change in science class. Yesterday, they visited Mass Audubon's Lime Kiln Farm Wildlife Sanctuary for some exploratory learning.
SBRSD's 3rd-6th grade production of "A Christmas Carol" is in tech week. Middle/High School Assistant Directors have played an integral role in this show, helping with everything from learning lines to designing costumes.
Spirit Week continues with Mt. Everett's "anything but a backpack day".
Pooled Testing will not be conducted on December 22nd. DESE recommends that pooled testing programs are only run when the school is able to complete the entire pooled testing process from the initial pooled test through the completion of all needed follow-up tests. Given that the holiday break begins on December 23rd, Southern Berkshire will not conduct testing on Wednesday, December 22nd.
Parents and Guardians: Please send copies of your child(ren)'s vaccination cards to the appropriate school nurse as soon as you are able. We want to ensure we have the most up-to-date information for our files and can address any circumstances appropriately. Thank you!

Mt. Everett Interact Club's - Winter Food Drive - December 6-17. Collection boxes are in each advisory classroom for all non-perishable foods.
Mt. Everett Student Council is holding a Raffle Giveaway for one of “Hero Artist” Rob Surret’s paintings. Tickets are only $1.00 and will be sold to students during lunch periods.
Be sure to stop by the Mount Everett library to experience Ms. Raszl's new display of interactive portraits. An art and storytelling project by Amplifier.org gives new life to the traditional display case.
11th graders in Mrs. Barros' class presented a lesson on Thomas Paine - an American author of Common Sense. They used a model of the Boston Massacre and the Tea Party revolt as his justification for pushing the colonists to fight for independence! Tea and crumpets accompanied this lesson!
2nd grade "warm and fuzzy jar" is one of the many social and emotional supports that Ms. Jenn uses in her classroom. Students who have been spotted displaying random acts of kindness are encouraged to grab a handful of fuzzies and place them in the class jar. Once the jar is filled, the class is able to vote on a reward.
It's great to see that second grade jar almost full!
