EverGreen Elementary participated in Ag Literacy Week with 4H Penn State Extension of Wayne County. Students in grades kindergarten to second grade participated with classroom readers. Pennsylvania Ag Literacy Week is an important annual event that aims to educate young students about the significance of agriculture in their daily lives. In essence, Pennsylvania Ag Literacy Week is a valuable educational endeavor that fosters a greater understanding of agriculture and its vital role in society. This year’s book is “The Soil in Jackie’s Garden” and will teach children the importance of gardening, soil secrets and the magic of composting.
The second-grade students at Evergreen Elementary teamed up with Kindergarten during Read Across America week on March 4, 2025. The second-grade students partnered up with kindergarten students to read a book to them. Second grade students also made a bookmark for their kindergarten reading buddy to take home, along with the book that they read and colored together.
Thank you to the EverGreen PTA for providing our students in grades K-5 with the opportunity to experience Kindness Quest. An exciting and educational laser show presented by Prismatic Magic. This 40-minute interactive assembly focused on the values of kindness, empathy, and teamwork through an engaging storyline filled with superheroes, a treasure map, and an outer space robot. Guided by the animated laser character Max Bravado, students participated in puzzles, games, and optical illusions designed to reinforce the importance of caring for others. With dazzling special effects, high-energy music, and a powerful message about community and friendship, Kindness Quest left a lasting impression, encouraging students to practice kindness in their daily lives. Parents can ask their children about their favorite part of the show and how they plan to apply what they learned to help build a more compassionate school environment.

On Sunday November 17, twelve students from Evergreen Elementary and two students from R.D. Wilson participated in the Girls on the Run 5k at Keystone College. The three mile run capped off the first ever ten week season of Girls on the Run at EverGreen Elementary.
Girls on the Run is a national non-profit which hosts after school programs promoting healthy habits, life skills and running based activities. Coach Rachel Fitzmorris said, “We are so proud of the 14 girls who completed this program. Watching them run three miles while cheering for each other was so inspiring. The whole mission of Girls on the Run is to show girls that they can do hard things. Seeing them come through the tunnel and get their medals was incredible. I want to thank coaches Mark and Beth Staples and Tanya Metschulat for all their hard work this season.”
