Museum march!
Each year, the fifth graders take a field trip to New York City to visit the Museum of Natural History. To help fund the trip, the students do a “museum march” where they walk or run around the block several times. Before that, however, they gather sponsors among family and friends. Great job!

Morris Belzer, a retired special education teacher at Walton CSD, had asked teacher Sal Salvia if it would be possible to build a mailbox stand. Sophomore Sabastion Thompson, who is in Salvia’s electronics class, volunteered to make the stand.
He started by cutting down the pressure-treated wood pieces to size, and assembled it. The process included 4-inch bolts with nuts, and 4-inch wood screws for the angle support. In all, it took Sabation about three classes to complete the mailbox stand.
Great work!
