Country singer Lizzie Sider might only be 15 years old, but she is already taking a stand for a cause that is important to her. The Florida native is traveling to schools all over her native state, on her No One Has the Power to Ruin Your Day anti-bullying tour. Lizzie visited Seadrift School to help spread the word. “Bullying doesn’t just happen in October during Bullying Prevention Awareness Month, it happens all year,” the teenager explains “As someone who understands what it is like to be bullied, I am on a mission to help anyone who doesn’t think anyone will listen.” As part of the assembly, Sider shares her own personal story of being teased in elementary school. She also performs her song, ‘Butterfly,’ which she co-wrote as a way to cope with her own pain from dealing with bullies. While visiting the Seadrift campus, Lizzie helped third grade students that raised butterflies through the life cycle be set free. The performance was enjoyed by all.

Pioneer Village Field Trip
by Arin Cleary, 3rd grader
On May 2, the Seadrift School 3rd and 4th grade students traveled to Gonzales, Texas to visit Pioneer Village. I thought it was fun learning the history of Gonzales. We saw lots of things.
I liked the wooden cabin. In the cabin we got to go up the stairs to see the loft where the girls slept. It was cool looking at a real pioneer cabin. We also saw the blacksmith. That was very interesting. The person there showed us how the blacksmith heated metal to make tools. Then we went to the farm and the person there told us how the animals lived and how they’re cared for. I hope we get to go back because it was fun and interesting.
