Standish EL 2nd Graders go to Thumb Octabarn
Students were able to see, hear, touch (and smell!) a variety of live
farm animals, including sheep, goats, horses of all sizes, pigs, rabbits,
and donkeys. Information was presented about the uses of the
animals such as pets, meat, other foods, fiber, work, and recreation.
Students also learned about the food and care the various animals
require and the origin of some of the species.
Second graders saw a display of live bees in their protective hives.
Discussion took place on hives and structure of the workers, drones,
and queen. The bee’s purpose is to pollinate nature’s fruits and
flowers, resulting in honey for people to eat!
At the sawmill museum, students met a live shanty boy (lumberjack)
who talked about the life of a shanty boy during the lumbering era
in Michigan. Students saw pictures from the era and many tools
that were used in the forest to get the logs to the sawmill. The
presentation featured stories of Paul Bunyan and Indian Dave. The
story of the fire of 1881 concluded the presentation. The presenters
demonstrated what the settlers had to go through to put a roof over
their heads. Students were given an idea of what life was like in the
late 1700’s and 1800”s and saw the tools used to cut down trees and
compared them to the tools used today. Finally, the Sawmill was
fired up so students could see what it took to provide the lumber
used in building. Fun was had by all! A big thank you goes out to the
Standish PTK for funding the transportation and the entry cost!
ACTING UP THEATER COMES TO STANDISH EL
With a rescheduled performance date due to a power
outage, the Standish Elementary second and fourth
graders had the opportunity once again to have the
Acting Up Theater come into their classrooms. Six
classrooms were able to pick a legend and create a
play. Students were able to experience all aspects
of the theater such as creating the play, making
props, and performing the play. Students performed
for the entire Standish Elementary, parents,
grandparents, and friends in the high school
auditorium. By having the Acting Up Theater come
into the classrooms, an enjoyable, educational, and
enriching theater experience was provided for all.
A special thank you goes out to the Standish PTK
for paying for the Acting Up Theater costs and for
the transportation to and from the high school.

ThinkFirst program gives
3rd graders bicycle helmets
Wildlife Visits First Graders
On April 30th the first graders in Mrs. Grier, Mrs. Gulvas and Mrs.
Kusey’s classrooms enjoyed a visit from Ruth Fruehauf, a volunteer
from the A.R.K., which stands for “Association to Rescue Kritters”.
The organization rescues orphaned or injured wild animals,
rehabilitates them and releases them back into the wild. Ruth was
able to bring four live birds to share with the class, including a redtailed hawk and several types of owls.
They learned about the importance of our wildlife, along with
ways we can keep our wildlife alive and happy in a healthier
environment.
This spring, third graders at Standish Elementary had the
opportunity to take part in The ThinkFirst program. This National
Injury Prevention Foundation, in partnership with St. Mary’s of
Michigan, is an award-winning, evidence-based program aimed
at helping people learn to reduce their risk for injury. ThinkFirst
programs educate young people about their personal vulnerability
and the importance of making safe choices. You can have a funfilled, exciting life, without hurting yourself if you “ThinkFirst.”
Tami Bersano, certified instructor of the ThinkFirst program, made
5 visits to each third grade classroom discussing the importance of
buckling up, avoiding violent situations, wearing a helmet, and
checking the water before you dive. At the end of the 5 week
session, each third grade student was fitted with their own personal
bicycle helmet provided by a generous donation from First Merit
Bank. Thanks to the ThinkFirst program and its sponsors for
offering this educational opportunity!

10th Annual Prom Lock-In Party is another SUCCESS!!!
This year, 155 students attended the Post-Prom Lock-In Party. After dancing the night away in their finest
attire, these students made the right choice and attended our Prom Lock-In! From midnight until 5:00 am our
students enjoyed food, games, crafts, The Velcro Wall, Gladiator Jousting, movies, Giant Twister, and some
SSC game shows! Without your generous donations of cash and prizes, our Lock-In would not have been
possible. The Standish-Sterling Central High School Student Council would like to thank the many businesses
and individuals who made donations to this year’s Post-Prom Lock-In Party. Your help allowed us to provide this
year’s entertainment and give out lots of prizes – thank you so much for all you do to support the students of our
schools!
We ask that you continue to support these businesses with your
daily patronage, and give these friends and neighbors your thanks!

Standish & Sterling GSRP Preschool news....
The Standish and Sterling GSRP Preschool children went to the Hagley Farm for their last field trip of the school year. The children fed hay
to the cows and fed the baby calves with bottles. They also held chickens and sat in the driver seat of a combine. The owners of the farm
treated the children to ice cream and each child was given a goodie bag to take home. It was a wonderful field trip and the preschool
sends the Hagley farm a huge thank you for letting us visit and for their generosity!
