5th Graders surpassed our Science School Improvement Goal so Science Coach, Mr. Ware, had to dye his beard! @mrwarescience @PSEgrade5

The Egg Drop Contest at PSE was a success. Following the creation of devices designed to protect raw eggs, each group successfully conducted a drop test. Today, 1 out of 4 of 5 devices was successful.

Third-graders have been tracking the migratory pattern of Suwannee Scout, a swallow-tailed kite. Presently, they are using a map to trace Suwannee Scout's route and are recording their observations in their science notebooks. @ParksideProud @collierschools @TeachEverglades

[Parkside Elementary @ParksideProud]

Last year, students raised money to buy a tracker for a Swallow-tailed Kite named Suwannee Scout. We last heard from him in August 2025 & we were worried about him. We got the amazing news that he was alive & well & on his way home! Students will learn more about his journey soon

A lunar eclipse will be visible tomorrow morning, just before sunrise. Unfortunately, peak eclipse happens just minutes before the moon sets below the horizon, but if you can get a clear view to the west, you should be able to see it for a few minutes. See schedule in part 2

During #EvergladesWeek, our class opted to read and write about Marjory S. Douglas, known as the "Mother of the Everglades". A couple of students were willing to share their introduction. #writing #reading #science @ParksideProud @TeachEverglades
