School Garden Days for Miss Plakos's Class...
Our East Eagles had the pleasure of getting their hands dirty in the school garden. Miss Plakos's 4th grade class had the opportunity of visiting and tending to the garden. The students were taught the rules of the garden and how to be respectful to the plants/animals and each other.
They were encouraged to be quiet in the garden, ask lots of questions, use their five senses and leave the garden better than when they came in. We taught the class "Leave No Trace" policies and this resulted in students picking up garbage/debris that littered the ground. The entry way of the garden was overgrown, and students pruned and made the pathway accessible. They also worked on clearing up under the sunflower gazebo.
The class took part in weed pulling, litter pickup, honeybee identification, and harvest (their favorite activity). Special guest, Mr. Plako's gave the students a plant identification and harvest lesson.
The fruits, vegetables and sunflowers were then brought back to the classrooms for students to enjoy. The melons and bright yellow sunflowers were a class favorite. A melon was cut open and class and used to demonstrate fractions and division to equally allow each student a slice.
Each student also was given a worksheet about the five senses and identified each sense with an adjective regarding the melon. This included smell, taste, feel, hear, and sight. Many students enjoyed the taste and fruity smell. The whole class learned lots of new skills and had lots of fun as well. Hopefully, other classes can enjoy the school garden as much as we have.

🌱💻 Growing Skills in East’s New STEM Lab! 🔬⚙️
We’re excited about a new opportunity for our students at East Omak Elementary—our STEM Lab!
The STEM Lab gives students a chance to build important skills for today and for their future by combining digital literacy, keyboarding, computer basics, and hands-on STEM learning.
Students will have opportunities to:
🌿 Build confidence using technology
⌨️ Develop keyboarding and computer skills
💻 Practice digital literacy
🔬 Explore science, technology, engineering, and math
⚙️ Design, build, create, problem-solve, and learn through hands-on activities
🤝 Work together, think creatively, and learn from mistakes
Our goal is to help students become comfortable and capable with technology while also giving them opportunities to wonder, explore, create, and discover.
At East, we know learning happens in lots of different ways—and sometimes the best learning happens when students can roll up their sleaves and DO!!
We can’t wait to see what our students create in the STEM Lab this year!
Kick'n it with the Cops.
🌿 What a wonderful first week at East Omak Elementary! 🌿
We kicked things off with an amazing turnout at our Back to School Night on August 27th. It was wonderful to see so many of our students and families filling the halls, meeting teachers, and getting ready for a great year ahead. 💚
And now, our favorite part — our students are back! There is nothing quite like seeing our classrooms full, hearing laughter in the hallways, and watching our East Omak community come back to life.
This year, we’re reminded that growth doesn’t happen all at once. It happens day by day — through new experiences, strong relationships, hard work, encouragement, and lots of little moments along the way. 🌱
We are so excited to spend this year helping our students grow, learn, bloom, and thrive. We’re grateful for our families, our staff, and most of all, the amazing students who make East such a special place to be.
🌱 Here’s to a year of growing together at East Omak Elementary! 🌿
