Student Life

This week at St. Gabriel School!



5th Grade Biztown Experience: Yesterday was an adventure for our 5th-grade students at St. Gabriel Catholic School as we delved into the world of business and governance at Junior Achievement Biztown. Our young scholars had the incredible opportunity to step into the shoes of entrepreneurs, civic leaders, and workers, learning firsthand what it takes to run a small town. With collaboration from fellow schools, we engaged in lively town meetings, managed payroll, utilized checks and debit cards, and so much more! It was a day filled with valuable lessons and hands-on experiences that will undoubtedly shape our future leaders of tomorrow. We're immensely proud of our students' enthusiasm and eagerness to learn.

4th Grade Arbor Day Project:

Our fourth-grade class was working hard this past Tuesday in honor of Arbor Day.  They planted 25 two-inch white spruce seedlings in the space between Hwy 164 and our playground.  When fully grown, these trees will provide both a visual screen and a windscreen for our playground.  Thank you to Mrs. McAleer and our fourth-grade students for all of their hard work!
