Blue Ridge Elementary School

When the job title of Asst. Principal and SRO involves all of the “other duties as assigned.” Thankful for @BlueRidgeEl admin and @oconeelaw SROs that do whatever it takes. @OconeeSC_school

When I heard my son say “mom! Look at the top of the hive!” As I approached the @BlueRidgeEl Apiary and garden this afternoon my heart fell. I was sure we lost them in the storm… but nope! They were buzzing away and thankfully know me as I repaired suit free and no stings.

Today called for a visit to our @BlueRidgeEl BrEEs, and boy have they been busy. I didn’t even get time to do a full inspection of the brood hive. Lots of honey, and now we are elevated! #BeekeepingSchool @TheBeeCause @SavannahBeeCo

Working with our @BlueRidgeEl @thesubpod compost beds today yielded some yummy surprises… even through the summer the growth continues at our school #SchoolGardening @scdhec #iTeachSTEM #Subpod

Spring harvesting done and summer Sweet Potato crops are in at the @BlueRidgeEl garden. Even caught one of our @TheBeeCause bees hard at work in the field. #SchoolGardening #STEMinTheGarden

Gorgeous sunny days call for our final @BlueRidgeEl STEM club meeting to have a sweet treat. These kids rocked their solar oven projects!

Checking on our peas and lettuce before our sweet potatoes come in, and then some time with the BRE bees this morning. Love watching this space grow. #STEMinTheGarden #SchoolGardens @TheBeeCause @CUESNews @SavannahBeeCo

Summer is for S’more outdoor fun, so @BlueRidgeEl is building solar ovens to test how we could make our favorite treat on the moon. #STEMClub #ITeachSTEM

Surprises awaited during this morning’s @BlueRidgeEl @thesubpod composting garden check in. Looks like our pollinators and worms are working hard! #STEMinTheGarden #SchoolGardens – at Seneca, SC
