Have you ever explored your family’s history?
We were lucky to have Amanda Shank visit our classroom and share her ancestry as part of our immigration and citizenship unit. Jacqueline also shared about her heritage, and several other students joined in by exploring their own backgrounds.
It was a meaningful experience as students learned more about their roots, family traditions, and the stories that make each of them unique.







We love the program Cooper and Owen are bringing to our students focused on financial literacy! This is such an important life skill.
Students worked together to “make pizzas” and earned money for completing them correctly—giving them a fun, hands-on way to see how work and earning really connect. Along the way, they practiced teamwork and problem-solving to reach their goals.
They’re also learning about the roles people play in making a community successful.
Thank you, Cooper and Owen, for being such positive role models and for making a meaningful impact on our students through this program!









Congratulations Kinley!

Students are turning yarn and fabric into useful creations—scrubbers, coasters, and pillows! 🧵🧶 These projects build fine motor skills, patience, and pride in making something useful.



There was something extra special happening in the library today! 📚✨
Our 1st graders teamed up with 4th grade buddies for a fun and meaningful buddy reading time. The students did an amazing job helping, encouraging, and reading alongside their partners. It was wonderful to see friendships forming, confidence growing, and a shared love for reading filling the room.
Both groups were so focused and engaged that when it was time to leave, many students didn’t want to go! Moments like these remind us how powerful reading together can be. 💙
We are so proud of our 1st and 4th graders for showing kindness, leadership, and a true love of learning today!
