4th and 5th grade attended the Allegheny Intermediate Unit 3 sponsored Science Bowl hosted by the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Students explored the museum and participated in different challenges. In "Fur, Feathers, and Scales" students observed, described and identified animal samples. The "Do You See What I See" challenge gave students the opportunity to explore the 50 Greatest Nature Photographs exhibit. Finally, we headed to Dinosaur Hall to answer trivia questions based on the exhibits for the "Who Am I" challenge. Congratulations to Evan, Maddox, and Vittoria for coming in 1st place at the competition! Congratulations to Sienna Heasley and Caroline Miller for earning awards from the Scholastic Art & Writing competition! The girls will be recognized at a ceremony at California University of PA in late February. The pieces that won gold awards will advance on to the national level and be evaluated in New York City. Way to go girls!

Mr. Keruskin, Lead Elementary Principal, and I collaborated to craft a submission for the Pennsylvania Department of Education's Teacher in the Workplace grant ($25,000). We recently found out that the grant has been awarded to Trinity Area! K-8 teachers will have the opportunity to learn new skills and learn about industrial trends in order to enhance classroom instruction, learning, and career readiness! We are excited to offer this program to our teachers!
