Here are the pictures from the dodgeball game! The students had a blast. Oh and the staff won the students vs staff game! Go Schaefer staff!











We have had a fun week here at Schaefer! Wednesday our Legacy Club gave a presentation to some community members to hopefully raise funds for a block party at the end of April. We also had a dodgeball tournament for the winning classes from our March madness competition for iReady (pictures will be on the next post) and then today students got to purchase a cup of shaved ice during lunch. Ms Tami and Mrs Connolly served about 121 cups of shaved ice in about 90 mins. Whew!



The SCSD will be CLOSED Monday, March 18. Please reference the email or all-call that were sent out earlier this evening for additional details. All activities, practices, games and events will be held as scheduled unless otherwise stated by noon on Monday. We apologize for any inconvenience that this closure may cause.

Happy Tuesday everyone! Wow we had a great day today! Our music staff, Ms. Timko, Mrs. Minner and Ms. Safley put on a concert for our students to celebrate Black History month. It was fantastic! The musical talent we have here at Schaefer is awesome! In choir we had three soloists, Mauii Stafford, Aniyah McGowan and Jailah Strickland, in band we had a trumpet soloist, Edwin Ortiz and in orchestra we had a guest student conductor, Eddie Strayer. After our students played and sang we had a guest, Adjunct Professor of Percussion from Wittenberg University, Ed Dunlap do a live Interactive Percussion Clinic. He studied music in West Africa and Ghana. All the instruments he brought were from there and some of our students got to learn to play them and together played a song. It was beautiful!

This week, students from Hayward, Schaefer, SOI and Springfield High School showcased their art, poetry, spoken word and musical abilities at the Springfield Museum of Art during the 'Art that Bonds' event.
The theme for this year's event was "The 'I' v. The 'Eye': How I see myself vs. How you see me." We are so proud of these young artists and how well they represented our District! More pictures are available on the District's Instagram.
