Math took an exciting turn in Mrs. Mahin’s third-grade class at Dillsboro Elementary School! Students put their multiplication skills to the test with a lively paper snowball fight, solving equations, recording their answers, and swapping problems with classmates. This fun, fast-paced activity kept students moving, thinking, and fully engaged as they practiced their math facts in a creative way!

Fourth-grade students at Dillsboro Elementary School in Mrs. Espich’s class compared fractions using benchmark strategies and hands-on fraction pieces. By determining whether a fraction was less than, equal to, or greater than one-half—and color-coding their work accordingly—students developed their number sense and built a solid foundation for the more advanced fraction concepts they will encounter in later math courses.

On Saturday, February 14th, Dillsboro Elementary School teachers will brave the cold to participate in a Polar Plunge benefiting the Special Olympics in Dearborn, Ripley, and Ohio Counties!
To support this important cause, DES is hosting a schoolwide fundraiser this week! When students return from their eLearning day, they are invited to bring in donations and place them in the jar of the staff member they would like to see drenched in ice-cold water.
And here’s the twist: the more money a staff member collects, the bigger the bucket of icy water they’ll face! 🥶 Students have until Friday, February 6th to make their donations.
Thank you for helping us support our Special Olympics athletes in our community!
