Friday's are for ART!!

Our lunch ladies, Miss Brandi and Miss Lorrie, could smell that 4th grade was enjoying some tasty books. They had to stop by and see how our "Book Tasting" was going. Students selected a book from five different genres to expose them to some new 'flavors' maybe they hadn't tried before! And, of course, we had to have a couple of treats to enjoy as well!

Thank You Northern Telephone Cooperative!

Refiner FB Season Opener is Today!

The Refiner football team will make the long trip to Noxon for a 7pm kickoff! Good luck Refiners!

In this introduction to inquiry lesson, 4th graders learned some of the skills and strategies historians use to learn about the past. They analyzed artifacts to answer the mystery question: "What can you learn from someone's pockets?" The students then shared their claim, based on the evidence, about whose pockets the items belonged in. Each group was able to come to the conclusion that all artifacts were in President Lincoln's pockets on the night of his assassination.

Lady Refiner Game Day

The Lady Refiner VB team opens their season at Valier tonight at 6pm in a varsity only contest. Good luck Lady Refiners!

Having a picture perfect first day in 4th grade!

On the first day of school, 4th graders were introduced to our exciting Classroom Economy program where they'll earn “Rich"mond Bucks for doing their job (attending school) and completing tasks like keeping their desk neat and using their planner. Students will learn important life skills like budgeting, saving money, and being responsible by paying weekly rent and shopping at our class store on Wednesdays. They have the opportunity to save and “buy” their desk, which will remove their rent but add in a small property tax! Today, they learned key vocabulary like ‘economy’, ‘deposit’, and ‘withdrawal’. As well as how to fill out their check register. It's going to be a fabulous year in 4th grade! 

Sunburst Schools is looking for a transportation director. Please see the notice below.
