Blair Pointe Upper Elementary Home

Blair Pointe has amazing artists and 3 students were recognized at the Lion's Club meeting for their participation in the 2025-2026 Peace Poster Contest.
Trace Clemons came in 3rd place; Emma York came in 2nd place, and Jasmine Wohlford came in 1st. All 3 students are current 6th graders.
Jasmine's piece was not only 1st place out of the 6th grade students at Blair Pointe, but she was also 1st in the district and 2nd in the state level. That is quite an accomplishment!
Blair Pointe art teacher, Mrs. Julie Brower said, "I am very proud of all 3 of these students! Great work!"

Students in the 5th and 6th grade L.I.F.T. program compete each year to see which team takes the top spot.
Each year, students are put into random groups with students from both grade levels. There are 3 rounds of competition during the day. Each round has 25 questions ranging in areas of math, literature, science, history, and random trivia. The top 3 teams were announced Monday, March 16th in the Blair Pointe gym.
The top 3 teams, in no particular order, were as follows:
The Chicken Tendies-
Bennett Peck, Mike Hopper, Gavyn Monesmith, Liam Porter, Emaline Overby
The Ceiling Fans-
Casen Samons, Amelia Reed, Cobain Parish, Cohle Morehead, Almira Opelt
21 Under-
Jolene Chumbley, Willow Suttle, Nila McClure, Leo Wohlford, Charlie Mathews

The top 3 teams competed in one final round to declare a champion. After 10 questions and the last tie breaker, the team that came out on top was...
The Chicken Tendies----Congratulations to Bennet, Mike, Gavyn, Liam, and Emaline

Teachers, Mrs. Christy McGuire and Ms. Leslie Murphy are proud of the hard work and effort shown by each team throughout the day and night.

Since students returned from winter break, all art classes have been working on an art project that has to incorporate the violin and music in it somehow. I would like to recognize the students listed below for having their artwork chosen in the upcoming 2026 Juried Exhibition of Art in Indianapolis, Indiana. This competition only happens every 4 years. This is one of the largest competitions in the state of Indiana with several Indiana schools participating.
Please help me wish them all good luck!!!!

All Sixth grade students attended HERO- The Boy from Troy at the Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel, Indiana. The play focused on the life and legacy of John Lewis. Lewis stood up for civil rights and eventually became a congressman to carry out his ideas.
"From an early age, John wanted to save things, and that included the chickens on his family's farm. It was neat to see how this carried on in his political career," Jack Taylor said.
Draven Smith learned that the actors were from New York City and have been working on the production since early December. The performers kept the students engaged throughout the performance.
