Students from Lindsay Elementary presented to the board for Board Appreciation Month, the Noetic Math contest winners were recognized, and the West Geauga Bees club reported educational progress and that their first honey run produced 44 4-ounce jars.
During board appreciation month, Lindsay Elementary Principal Samantha Prince introduced a student-council presentation highlighting classroom activities, leadership opportunities and upcoming events including a fifth-grade space project open house on Jan. 29 and the winter musical scheduled for March 7. Student council members described Socratic seminars, math topics by grade level and community-service projects such as Thanksgiving food baskets.
School staff recognized fall-round Noetic Math contest team winners across grades 2–8 and announced that two students placed in the national top 10 percentile and achieved Noetic’s national honor roll for their grade levels.
Kathleen Harrison and student leaders of the West Geauga Bees described the district’s beehive initiative: a winterized two-box hive, a pollinator garden partnership with Lowe’s, educational hive visits, extraction and jar sales (44 4-ounce jars sold at the Halloween event) and purchases of bee suits and equipment. The club said it intends to seek a Youth Bee Works grant to fund a second hive and broaden participation next year.
