Our student leaders help make each school day special from beginning to end! In the morning, they welcome students and staff with friendly smiles, and in the afternoon, they help keep dismissal running smoothly by opening car doors. These are just two of the many schoolwide leadership roles our students take on throughout the year. We’ll be sharing more leadership spotlights in the coming days and weeks, so stay tuned to meet more of the incredible students who help make our school such a great place to learn and grow!

Science got a little messy in Mrs. Parks’ class today! The students put their learning to the test by making oobleck during their States of Matter unit—and had a blast exploring its unique properties. Science fact of the day brought to you by 3rd graders: Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid, meaning it acts like a solid when pressure is applied but flows like a liquid when left alone!

Today in Mr. Stover's class, students learned about teamwork with a STEM challenge! Students teamed up to build the tallest index card tower they could, but there was a catch: to add a card to their tower, teammates first had to find something they had in common. Students discovered new connections while putting their problem-solving skills to the test!
