Our 5th grade class wrapped up two big days of state testing with a well-deserved Fun Friday! 🎉
Students spent the morning diving into hands-on STEM activities, working together, and getting creative. We also had some time for games—including a very competitive (and fun!) round of spoons that kept everyone on their toes! 🥄
We are so proud of all the hard work and focus these students showed during testing. It was great to see them relax, laugh, and enjoy time together after giving it their all!

The 2nd grade students have enjoyed going to the Nursing Home this year. On 3/25, students made bird feeders with the residents to celebrate the beginning of Spring. On 4/8, students read to the residents and were able to make a resident's day by singing her Happy Birthday!
Good Luck to Luke, Callie, and Marin at State FFA!

Both kindergarten classes enjoyed acting out the book Pooh's Easter Egg Hunt where Winnie the Pooh lost his Easter eggs as soon as he found them. After Piglet discovered the hole in the basket, everyone shared the Easter eggs and honey. The students did an excellent job saying each character's lines and finding the right colored eggs.
