FMS holds great moral boosting event as angels play demons. Student body applauds.






There are times on any job when laughter brings everyone together. Fruita Middle School Faculty recognizes this. Yearly, a special basketball game is held for the students body to enjoy. Believe me, the faculty enjoys the event just as much. 'Tis the time all cares are left at the door as pure enjoyment, and laughter fill the gym. Go, Fruita Middle
School!

Shelledy Elementary does it again on Veterans' Day as they honor our Nation's heroes
















November 10 found Cathy Barger and the third graders from Shelledy Elementary performing a program meant to honor the Nation's Heroes, our armed forces who have served and are presently serving on foreign lands for their country. The classes also performed their program for families and friends that evening at 6:30 in Shelledy's gym.
Barger has taught her students the songs and dialogue for the past ten some years. Students to only learn their music and lines, but they learn how much we owe to those who have served and are serving.
The community of Fruita is most grateful to Shelledy, the students and Barger for this wonderful and inspiring program. Don't miss it next year.

New math curriculum inspires parents' meeting at Fruita 8/9. Article by Kathleen J. Bramwell.

New Math Curriculum Will Be Explained At Fruita 8/9 School
By Kathleen J. Bramwell
Fruita 8/9 School Reporter

The School Advisory Council of Fruita 8/9 will host a meeting to discuss the new math curriculum Thursday, November 5 at 6 P.M. This will be a parent information meeting that will have a presentation explaining the new math curriculum.

The recently adopted math curriculum uses a group system that allows students to get different outlooks on how a problem can be solved. These groups are small with only 2 to 3 students in each in order to not overwhelm a student and allow them interact with other students while also working independently.

As the new math program helps with working in a group, it also shows students how math is connected to real life. The teachers support this by not lecturing all the time, but also asking questions that make students look deeper into problems. Teachers promote involvement by letting the students perform activities that are relevant to the problem, although it is promoted more in the eighth grade then the ninth.

The meeting at the Fruita 8/9 library is open to anyone interested in learning about the new School District 51 math curriculum. The presentation will be followed by a question and answer session.
