Quitman Elementary
QES Students Create their Own Volcanoes
Fifth grade students at Quitman Elementary finished
a unit on volcanoes. To test their
knowledge students made models of volcanoes for a class project. The students brought their models to the
playground and with the help of their Science Teacher, Sheryl Haney, they created
volcano eruptions. This was part of the
curriculum where students learned how to identify surface features caused by
constructive and destructive process which included volcanoes. Pictured is fifth grader, Lewis L. reacting as
his volcano erupts. To see more pictures from the 5th graders visit the photo section of this site or click here.
Your SPLOST Dollars at Work!
Thanks to the penny sales tax in Brooks County for Education SPLOST, Quitman Elementary's gym is getting a new air conditioner. Not only does the gym house the school's Physical Education classes but, also school chorus performances and special programs. This was a much needed project and the projected date of completion is sometime this fall.
