🥁 Newfield Middle School felt the beat last week when Aloja visited to teach our students about the musical power of drumming! 🪘🎵
Aloja showed how rhythm and percussion can create more than music, it can also build teamwork and self-expression! Learning never sounded so good! 🌟🎶

This year we were able to hold our first district wide giving tree and it was a huge success. We were able to get 159 donations! All of the donations were given to the Newfield Baptist Church Clothing Closet. They were able to give out the donations to people in our community in need and people from other communities. Thank you to everyone who donated!

🌟🎨 Creativity meets history in Mr. Byron Williams’ Elementary Art class.

Students traveled back in time to the Stone Age (more than 17,000 years ago!) and explored how animals were central to prehistoric life. After listening to The Cave Painter of Lascaux, students then became cave painters themselves, creating animal drawings inspired by real cave art!
