Kindergarten students had the opportunity to go on a field trip to Vineyard Nursery and enjoy their "Pumpkinland".  In class they have been discussing and learning about the four seasons and specifically the fall season.  They have been talking about the signs of fall and this was the perfect opportunity to see the signs of fall.  They had lots of fun looking at the different types of pumpkins and gourds.  Students got lost in a corn maze and also were able to see how corn grows.  They also were able to see giant sunflowers and talk about how we get sunflower seeds

Governor Greg Bell came to Sierra Bonita Elementary.  He said if you are getting made fun of, you should always be happy, nice, and kind anyway.  It doesn’t matter who you are, be nice to everyone!  You should ignore people if they are being unkind.  You should still be nice to them anyway.  If you are nice to people, they will most likely be nice to you.  Be proud of who you are!  Always be nice to everyone!  Lt.
