FALL FEST

On Friday, November 18th the middle school had a fun Fallthemed day. We had a wide range of events and activities for students to celebrate the arrival of the Autumn.

Some of the students worked on arts and crafts projects in the cafeteria with our fine arts department, others headed outside to our turf field for some yard games/sports. Meanwhile, Ms. Hernandez showcased a Halloween exposition her students had created a few weeks back.

One thing that was special about this year’s Fall Fest was our baking competition. Our middle school budding bakers entered our first annual Fall Bake-Off contest, and we were blown away by the number of entries. There were a few rules for this Bake-Off:

- All submissions must be homemade

- Submission must have a fall theme

- Submissions should be presented and explained by the baker.

Throughout the entire competition, over 25 desserts were sampled by our faculty members. From orange and yellow decorated cookies to homemade flan, our teachers were impressed and stuffed by the end of the tasting session. They had a difficult time selecting the winners, but the winners were:

Best Decoration

Dyala Elshafee - Grade 5

Best Overall Taste

Tasneem Tatar - Grade 6

Best Presentation

Lily Noriega - Grade 7

Middle school students ended their day by competing in several online games to test their knowledge on fall themed Kahoot! and ended the day by watching a movie in auditorium.
