Today, Mrs. Ash and some of Magnolia’s FFA students joined us to run exciting Halloween stations! Our students had a blast coloring treat bags, painting ghost pumpkins, and listening to Halloween stories. They even got to meet some furry (and not-so-furry!) friends — kittens, guinea pigs, an angora rabbit, and a pig! 🐷🐰🐹🐱

On October 29th, the New Martinsville School Robotics Teams celebrated the Halloween spirit by having a party. Thanks to the generosity and support of our parents, the students had a great time. The students worked on their robots, watched a spooky movie and ate great treats. This activity really helped energize them and prepare them for the great season ahead. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

🌟 Leader in Me Spotlight at NMS! 🌟
We’re so proud to celebrate our very first student on the Leader in Me Wall of Fame — Elise! 🎉
Elise showed what it means to be Proactive (Habit 1) by helping another student find his jacket before it turned into a disaster. Way to lead with kindness and responsibility, Elise! 💙💛
YEA, ELISE!! 🦅👏
Our Pre-K Eagles are soaring high! 🌟
They’ve been busy reading, and their leaves are really adding up on the Reading Tree! Each leaf represents five books read — and they’re growing a beautiful forest of readers right here at NMS.
Way to go, PK! Keep turning those pages and showing everyone that leaders are readers! 🦅💙
Our Leader in Me students have also been busy spreading positivity throughout our school — creating thank-you cards,thinking of you cards, and flower notes for staff and teachers who have made a positive impact on them. 🌸✉️
What a wonderful reminder that leadership starts with gratitude and that small acts of kindness can make a big difference. 💛 so proud of our Eagles. Keep Leading!
