Every Monday morning Sierra Bonita students and faculty stand in honor of the National Anthem.  Most often it is a recorded version played over the intercom.  Recently though, the student body and staff were treated to a live performance by a very talented third grade student from Mrs. Robin Wheatley’s class.  Halee Crowther delighted everyone with an amazing rendition of the country’s anthem.

The faculty and staff of Sierra Bonita Elementary feel that Janna Slye
is an outstanding teacher and deserving of the Crystal Apple award. Janna has
been teaching for four years, but also worked in Nebo School District before she
started teaching. Janna is very professional and is a huge support to every
grade level. She always sees to the needs of each individual child and shares
ideas and advice throughout the faculty. She is a dedicated teacher who spends
countless hours planning and preparing lessons that will benefit her students.

The 5th grade students went back in time and experienced a day in colonial times.  They made candles and wrote in cursive with an old-fashioned feather pen.  They watched videos of what the Colonial Days were like.  They played fun games such as potato sack racing.  Everyone had a great time.

On October 2nd the second grade students enjoyed a field trip to the pumpkin patch.  They loved the corn maze, picking pumpkins (they later decorated), and climbing the hay pyramid.  However the highlight of the trip, according to second grade students Will Murri and Kaleb Hales, was swimming in the corn pool.  A corn pool is a large enclosed space with dry, cut up corn that the students could get into like a swimming pool.
