Picture Day was today, now what???

Our teachers are working hard on unit and lesson internalization protocols. Today, our staff worked with a coach from iReady Curriculum Associates to reflect on previous learning and prepare for upcoming lessons. We are incredibly fortunate to have educators like these who are dedicated to achieving the best possible learning outcomes for every student, every day.

Third grade students created three digit addition equations. They then used place value blocks as a strategy to check their sum for their equations. The students loved the activity that strengthened their addition skills!









Third grade had its first kids to move up to the yellow karate belt in multiplication. They move to the next belt by correctly answering thirty questions on each of four multiplication tests. Great job boys!

This week, 6th grade launched its first weekly RC car race event! Two students were selected from each homeroom to participate, chosen for demonstrating outstanding leadership and consistent classroom engagement throughout the week.
The selected students competed in morning races within their homerooms, and the winners advanced to the afternoon championship round to determine the overall grade-level champion.
The weekly champion will have the honor of wearing the winner’s medal until the following week’s race. 🏅 🏎️
