Our elementary students had a wonderful opportunity today to connect with a classroom in the Philippines! 🌎📚 Our students gave a presentation and shared about life and learning at our school. They also enjoyed listening as students from the Philippines shared about their education and daily school experiences.
Because of the time difference, the students in the Philippines joined their school at 6:00 a.m., which was 4:00 p.m. for us. ⏰ We truly appreciate their effort to connect with us and make this learning experience possible!
We are especially thankful for the international cultural experiences that Ms. Mary has brought to our elementary students. 🌍✨ Opportunities like this help broaden perspectives and build connections beyond our community. 🤝📖

Our Vilas 4th–6th grade students had a great experience this week participating in AmeriTowne alongside students from Campo and Pritchett!
Students first learned about civic responsibility and personal finance in the classroom, and then had the opportunity to put those skills into action while running their own town. From managing businesses to earning and spending money, students experienced what it takes to make a community work.
We are grateful for opportunities like this that help students build real-world skills in teamwork, leadership, and financial literacy. Great job, students! 👏
