Thank you to our JOM high school students (Boston Knowles, Carter Goldston, Jett Tyler, Hannah Whitaker, & Camden Frankenberg) who volunteered their time today in PE!

Good afternoon Dragons!

We can't wait to see you! 📚♥️🐲

This week in PE we did lots of basketball drills which included jump stops, the triple threat, pivoting, passing, dribbling, and shooting! We played 21, Gotcha, Hotspots, and did some scrimmaging in the upper grades. Good luck to all the dragon ballers playing this weekend!!! 💪🏼🏀🔥🐉
In PE, we’ve been playing Winter Wonderland Games created by OPEN this week! Holiday Light Fight is a relay-style game using dice and cones. Roll a number and flip that light on! These kiddos definitely got their heart rates up! We also played Climb the Christmas Tree integrating addition and multiplication facts and Feed the Reindeer which encourages teamwork, communication, and locomotor movements. #perocks #winterwonderland #ignite
Thank you to our awesome PTO for treating our staff to a yummy Thanksmas luncheon! The banana pudding, chocolate pie, cookies, and pizza 🍕 were delicious! We appreciate you!!!
Basketball is in full swing at Purcell Intermediate! This week we are working on ball-handling, dribbling, and passing. We are learning to dribble with both hands, keeping eyes up, and ball control. Dribble Knockout has been a fun way to bring it all together! #perocks #dragonbasketball #ignite
Our phenomenal 5th grade students performed the Jingle Bell Jukebox on Monday evening bringing joy and holiday spirit to our dragon community! Thank you to our fifth grade teachers for their flexibility and support, to our Dragon families for coming out to watch the performance, to the students for all their hard work and dedication, and to Mrs. Carlson for pouring her heart and soul into this production! Great job 5th grade! #happyholidays #ignite #dragonpride
Holiday Spirit Week kicks off next Monday, December 12th! Let’s see which grade level will get the spirit stick each day!!! #ignite #dragonpride
We would like to give a shoutout to Coulter West and Lexi Little for showing leadership and kindness this week! Coulter was recognized at our morning assembly for being selfless during the 4th grade music program, and Lexi Little ran an extra down-and-back with a friend during PE. These students did this completely on their own without being asked! Super proud of our young dragons! #dragonpride #caughtyabeinggood #ignite #leadership
