One of the many joys of our small district is the wonderful sense of community! Also this week, our amazing third graders took on the role of guest readers for our kindergarteners during Read Across America Week. 📚❤️ It was heartwarming to see the older students share their love of reading with the younger ones. From silly voices to enthusiastic page turns, it was a beautiful example of peer learning and friendship. We're so proud of our students for embracing the spirit of Read Across America! What a special moment for our school family.
This week was a whirlwind of Seussical fun, and we were so fortunate to have some wonderful guest readers share their love of books with our students! We read, we laughed, and we celebrated the magic of reading. AND we even bravely tried GREEN EGGS AND HAM! 🍳💚 It was a true community effort, and we're so grateful. Ask your child if they dared to try the green eggs and ham, and share their reaction in the comments! We'd love to hear about their favorite moments from the week. 👇 #ReadAcrossAmerica #DrSeussWeek #GuestReadersRock #GreenEggsAndHamAdventures #CommunityLove

Learning comes to life in 4th grade! Our students dove deep into the world of landforms, researching and then creating their own. We saw everything from canyons crafted from pebbles to islands built with…well, let's just say the creativity was flowing! These hands-on projects are a perfect example of how we're creating deeper learning experiences that stick. #landforms #geography #4thgrade #deeperlearning
Yesterday we celebrated the 100th day of school in style! 🎉 From dressing up like construction workers to "build 100" to designing fruit loop necklaces with 100 loops. We counted to 100 in every way imaginable and we had a blast celebrating this milestone. We built with 100 cups, made 100th-day snacks, and even sorted through 100 different words. A huge thank you to our amazing teachers and students for making it such a fun and memorable day. Check out some of the highlights from our 100th-day festivities!
We had a BLAST at Kiddie Cheer Camp last week! 🎉 A HUGE thank you to all the amazing kiddos who brought their energy and smiles, and to their incredible families for their support!

Happy (belated) New Year to our amazing students! 🎉 We're so glad to have you all back in the classroom and already off to a fantastic start this new year!

Even Ralphie Parker would agree: frozen poles are a major bummer! ❄️ Remember that iconic tongue-stuck scene from 'A Christmas Story'? Keep those tongues tucked in this winter to avoid a similar fate! #AChristmasStory #TongueStuck #WinterSafety #HappensTooOften
