AVID Excel students in Mrs. Pridy's class take an AVID brain break. With the demands of learning, it is important to remain balanced. Brain breaks allow students a minute to stretch their body and refocus on their work. We are learning that mindfulness training is important to achieving a healthy and balanced life for our students. Way to go AVID Excel!

Harvest Middle School morning break was full of energy as our Leadership students led our first ever rally in the quad. Our ACE Soccer Teams were honored. 8th grade won the class competition in soccer drills and now has the Golden Hawk Egg displayed in the Wellness Center. Leadership led the school in our school chant. It was a great Friday morning to be an IB Hawk! Thank you Leadership students for your risk-taking and open-mindedness.

At Harvest, we value communication skills and believe that it is important to shake hands while looking people in the eye. Watch our teachers at the beginning of every period shaking hands and greeting students. The Harvest Administrative Team spent time introducing themselves to the Harvest students the past few weeks. In return, the Harvest students were challenged to introduce themselves to an administrator. Students were given Harvest business cards to have administrators sign as proof of the introduction. One Advisory class per grade level with the most signed business cards gets a prize. Our 8th graders are a very competitive bunch. Mrs. Jones was shaking hands all day. Way to go 8th graders!

As an International Baccalaureate World School, we believe in educating the whole child. The robust elective program allows students to explore interests and passions. Students have the opportunity to learn science through hands-on experiences in the garden. Through Mrs. Fleming's garden class students practice inquiry and see results. They learn self-management, communication and collaboration skills as they work together, as you see in this photo, to grow plants and raise chickens. Thank you to Embassy Suites Napa Valley (Hilton) who partners with our garden. The products of our garden are used in the kitchen at Embassy Suites.

In 6th grade science today, Harvest students had their hands on, hearts on and heads on as they tried to discover the content within boxes. An International Baccalaureate education is learning through inquiry and what better way than to explore by testing hypotheses and working with others to discover new learning.

At Harvest Middle School, we believe in educating the whole child. Students have the opportunity to participate in many electives and one of those electives is instrumental. In this photo, Mr. Day, our music teacher, is working with students on how to get a strong airflow in order to play a solid and steady note. Come out in December when our Harvest Hawks are ready to show off for the community.

Harvest Hawks gathered together as a team for the first assembly of the school year. In celebration of World Humanitarian Day, students participated in a class competition called the Human Web. The 7th grade class won Harvey the Hawk's Golden Egg. Harvey's Golden Egg is a new tradition at Harvest Middle School. Throughout the year, the grade levels will compete for the Golden Egg. When a grade level wins the egg, they get to decorate it and see it on display in the Wellness Center. We can't wait to see how 7th grade decorates the egg. Go #ibhawks!
