Celebrations from the Week
We are thrilled to share that our 5th and 6th grade students had a fantastic learning experience this week. They participated in a simulation of the Senate and House, where they created their own committees and voted on bills that would impact our school community. The students proposed some intriguing legislation, including ideas for more drink options in the cafeteria and the possibility of chewing bubble gum during school hours. It was a wonderful opportunity for them to engage in civic learning!
Additional Information
We are proud to announce that our school was recognized at the October board meeting for achieving the highest growth percentile in the entire district! This accomplishment is a testament to the hard work of our students and the dedication of our teachers and staff. Thank you for your support in making this possible!
