The Schwartz Botball Team participated in the Mid-Del Elementary Botball Challenge on Saturday, February 8, 2025, at the Mid-Del Learning Services Center. Students were presented with five regular challenges, two mystery challenges, and one bonus challenge, requiring them to utilize their computer programming, collaboration, and problem-solving skills. Tasks varied in difficulty, from simple ones like driving forward to touch a soda can to more complex ones such as programming the bot to draw a happy face. Schwartz was one of three schools to successfully complete EVERY CHALLENGE, earning a banner that was proudly presented to Mr. Jones during Stomp! Congratulations to our outstanding Stallions! #mdpurpose

For the past two years, our wonderful secretary, Mrs. Erin Collier, has organized a delightful activity for the Schwartz staff. She hides Marley the Mouse somewhere in the school, and when a staff member finds her, they snap a picture, return Marley to the office, and choose a prize. Thank you, Mrs. Collier, for bringing such a fun and new tradition to our school!

Congratulations to Mrs. King and Mrs. Howell on receiving a Mid-Del Public Schools Foundation Big Idea Grant!! We are incredibly grateful to the Mid-Del Public Schools Foundation for their unwavering dedication to supporting our teachers and enhancing educational opportunities!

Second Annual Schwartz Day Parade Mrs. Campbell shared the delightful book Balloons Over Broadway with her first-grade classes, introducing them to the fascinating story of Tony Sarg, the creative genius behind the iconic Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade balloons. Inspired by Sarg’s ingenuity, the students stepped into the roles of engineers and designers, tasked with creating their own balloons for the 2nd Annual Schwartz Thanksgiving Day Parade. To tackle the challenge, the class brainstormed innovative ways to attach their balloons to the class Bee Bots, sketched detailed design plans, and brought their visions to life. The result? An impressive display of creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving that truly captured the spirit of the holiday season! 💙💛Great Job Stallions!!💛💙 #mdpurpose

Carl Albert High School Marching Band visited our Stallions today. The students loved hearing songs that are played at the football games.

Happy Veterans' Day On Friday, Schwartz had the honor of hosting a Veterans’ breakfast to recognize and thank our military members, both active and retired. We were joined by guest speaker Command Master Chief Curtis Blunt, who is currently the Branch Manager at FNB Community Bank, Tinker BX. A big thank you to our amazing Schwartz PTA for organizing this meaningful event, and to FNB Community Bank for sponsoring. Our celebration continued at our "Let Freedom Ring - Celebrate the USA" Stomp. Ms. McBride did an outstanding job preparing our 3rd Grade Stallions for their special performance. During the program, our Veterans were recognized and invited to share how long they served, where they served, and who they were there to represent. It was a truly special moment. Thank you to all veterans, past and present, for your service and sacrifice. #mdpurpose #TeamTinker #VeteransDay

Happy Election Day! Today in kindergarten, Miss Chilton read Duck for President by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin. Afterwards, the class held their own election, voting between Duck and Farmer Brown. The results are in: Duck won the vote! It was a fantastic lesson on the importance of exercising your right to vote. #mdpurpose

These awesome third graders did an excellent job of depicting the literal meaning of their idioms! Figurative language is such a fun unit and they love learning about idioms - phrases we say but don't really mean. #mdpurpose
