This week several classes enjoyed hands on learning with Mrs. Byrd and Mrs. Pittman! In 3rd grade classes, they learned how to use a scale and measured weight (in grams) of fruit and vegetables! In 4th grade they learned how to used a measuring tape and cubic square units to find area and perimeter!#alabamaachieves #amsti4all #amsti





Shout out to our students who received “shout outs” this week! Each week we celebrate students who are caught doing the right thing! It may be students who held a door, picked up trash, helped a friend, showed kindness,etc. These students exemplify the character traits that we love to see in our students! #leadership #kindness #itsagreatdayatUSJ

Due to the large number of absences (over 400 district wide) , most of which are due to flu positives, ALL Demopolis City schools will operate virtually on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week (Oct. 25 - 26th). Students will be bringing home a packet of work that should be returned on Thursday.
