ELEMENTARY PAGEANT ANNOUNCEMENT
101 Days Smarter
Our Pre-K students celebrated reaching the milestone of 101 days smarter in a fun and creative way by dressing up as 101 Dalmatians! They participated in a variety of exciting activities centered around the number 101 and the beloved Dalmatian dogs. From counting games to arts and crafts, it was a day full of learning and fun! We’re so proud of the progress our learners have made this year.

SCHOOL BUS SAFETY WEEK
🟡 Yellow lights 🟡 on a school bus indicate the bus is preparing to stop. 🛑 If driving, slow down, stay alert, and watch out for children.
Friday Morning Game Day was a hit in Ms. Scheldt's 2nd grade class! Our students practiced their math facts while working together to choose games, take turns, and strengthen their social skills.
What made it even more special? These centers were completely student-led! It was fantastic to see our young learners collaborating and having fun while reinforcing their academics. Way to go, 2nd graders!
