For many years the children at Pierce School have made the walk down the main street of Bennington, past 100 year old homes and the Country Store to the beautiful brick building on the corner. Passing through its copper doors into the GEP Dodge Library, the students in Ms. Cannon's Kindergarten are welcomed by Mrs. MacGregor, librarian, and right away they know that they are in for a treat, a special story read aloud, just for them. When the story ends, it is time to hunt for some real treasure, a new book, a favorite book, a great book to bring back to school to read and reread and enjoy until...one day Ms. Cannon announces..."Guess where we are going?"

[post_content] => Picture book author, David Rottenberg, visited Pierce School on Thursday. The dancers from the Peterborough Dance Theatre performed as Mr. Rottenberg read the inspiring story of Gwendolyn the Graceful Pig; a tale of two best friends with big dreams. Gwendolyn's hearts desire is to dance and Omar yearns to play football. The only thing standing in their way is that they are both pigs. With the aid of Natasha Leverton, "world's greatest teacher in ze vorld" both make their dreams come true. Definitely an exciting and fun performance for the children to hear and see.
To find out what happens next for Gwendolyn and Omar you might want to read Gwdndolyn goes to Hollywood.

[post_content] => On Wednesday Mrs. Germain's 4th traveled to Greenland, New Hampshire to visit the Great Bay Discovery Center with friends from Francestown Elementary School. Prior to the visit, the class learned that the Great Bay is an estuary - a land form where freshwater and seawater meet. Estuaries are critical habitats for many animals as well as places for several bird species to stop along their migration routes. The 4th graders also learned about the Abenaki Natives who lived in the region and how they used the natural resources found in the estuary to survive. The early European settlers who came to the region and established New Hampshire as a colony also utilized its resources. It was an amazing experience for all!

[post_content] => Celebrating another Ski Season
Written By: Ms. Sutton
Although many are excited for warm weather, skiers and snowboarders would love to see the snow fly for just a little bit longer. This year 31 Pierce School students participated in the after school ski program. It was the perfect season filled with lots of snow, great temperatures and of course cherished time with friends. For some, this was their first year learning to ski or board. Bella in third grade said, “Everyone is friendly at the mountain and I learned a lot.” Olivia just finished her third year of lessons and said, “It is really fun to ski because you can get to different ski levels. I can ski the light blue trails now“. Watching students shine outside of the classroom and have the courage to try something new could not be more rewarding. Friendships were made and participants learned to trust each other.
The after school ski program is a PTO sponsored event and would not be possible without the dedication, help and support of PTO President Theresa Healey, the teachers and parents who help each week. If you would like your child to be part of the after school ski program, please contact Theresa Healey or Ms. Sutton for more information. Online registration for next season will begin in September for the 2018-2019 program. Partial scholarships are often available. If it is going to be cold and snowy, we might as well enjoy it! Happy winter!
