Hi Miner Families!

Hi Silver Trail Families,
We’ve had a wonderful week of building community here at Silver Trail! Our staff and students have enjoyed several fun activities while still keeping academics front and center each day. Be sure to ask your child about the Freezing like a Snowman, our Cookie Thief activity and the Staff Created Snowmen that students voted on (pictures below)—they’re sure to have some great stories to share!

Save the Date:
  • December 18Trail Assembly celebrating student successes from the first half of the year
  • December 19Schoolwide Sing-A-Long

We look forward to celebrating together!

With Miner Pride,
Principal Harding

"Stay on the TRAIL"

At Silver Trail Elementary, we have schoolwide rules that apply everywhere students go—classroom, bathroom, hallway, cafeteria, playground, bus, and beyond. These expectations help create a safe, respectful, and positive learning environment for everyone.

We remind students to "Stay on the TRAIL" every day during announcements, using our TRAIL expectations:
  • T – Team Player
  • R – Respectful
  • A – Accountable
  • I – Integrity
  • L – Leadership
By following TRAIL expectations, our students are set up for success no matter where they are in our school community and earn TRAIL tickets for the school store when they get caught following the TRAIL.
 
Important Dates
  • December 18 - Trail Assemblies
  • December 19 - Sing-A-Long
  • December 22 - January 5 - Christmas Break.
  • January 6 (TUESDAY) - School Resumes Again.
