Swanson fifth graders completed their unit of study of historical figures by hosting a "wax museum".  Families could visit each "exhibit" and learn about everyone from Rosa Parks to Abe Lincoln.

In February, we had several students participate in the Wisconsin Mathematics League annual math 6 contest.

Swanson Elementary tied for 6th place out of 35 schools across the state.  Top scorers at Swanson include:

• Vaidehi Ramachandrula
• Matthew Wang
• Jatin Gummadi
• Emmitt Lee
• Bijal Shrestha
• Nicholas Wimmer

Vaidehi, Matthew and Jay were also recognized among the top 44 scorers in the contest!

Congratulations to all who participated!  

The third grade study of countries of the world culminated with classroom presentations and a concert of world music.   Songs from Russia, Nigeria, Ghana, Japan and more were performed.

On Sunday, in Kenosha, Arthur Nagyerdei became the State-Champion in TaeKwonDo sparring in the 8-9 year old category.  He also placed 3^rd in forms.

Arthur fought for the Wisconsin State Taekwondo Champion title in the 8-9YO Male Sparring division and was awarded a permanent black belt just a day earlier. (He was fighting as a red belt at State, because that was the belt he officially held at the time of registration.)

He has worked a total of 3 years and a half for all this, almost every day, often times 2+ hours a day. 

Congratulations, Arthur!
