NOVEMBER: THE MONTH OF THANKSGIVING FEASTS!

Between serving our hard-working staff and teachers an amazing beef brisket luncheon, to 3rd Grade Cornerstones planning a Thanksgiving Dinner, to 4th Grade Turkey Day FEAST, and finally to bringing in and then donating more than 20 turkeys to families in need, Miner was in the ThanksGIVING spirit last month!

Field trips galore! 

The Miner Elementary participation in the Live it, Learn it! program, gets students out of the classroom and into living history. Last month, the 3rd grade classes visited George Washington’s Mount Vernon. Additionally, our 2nd and 4th graders visited Imagination Stage for a viewing of the show the BFG. The Preschool and PreK classrooms are studying trees and took a field trip to the National Arboretum. A busy month with Miner students out and about!

Miner DCSCORES soccer team wraps up a winning season!

Our DCSCORES Soccer teams had a great season, with a ton of wins, gorgeous weather, and many fans out to cheer on the Miner Bears!

Mathletes run and sum!

The Miner Mathletes is an awesome running club with a math focus. The Mathletes meet regularly, practice up on their math skills, and do exercise activities and group runs. 

5th Graders Go Overnight Camping! 

As part of a partnership with Nature Bridge, our entire 5th grade class went on a two night camping trip! The students, teachers, and parent chaperones collected and identified insects, went hiking, sat around a campfire, and explored the nearby trails!

DINO ROCK Rocks the Miner Stage! 

WATCH THE VIDEO! Thanks to our partnership with the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, a musical, cultural, and fun performance came to the Miner Elementary School stage to wrap up Spirit Week and our celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month. Dino Rock's "Mi Casa Es Su Casa" introduces American children to their South American neighbors through audience participation, original bilingual songs, authentic Latin rhythms, true travel stories and bright, colorful characters created by Emmy Award-winning puppeteer Ingrid Crepeau.
