Principal Appreciation Day! We’re sending a huge thank you to Ms. Shiva for leading with heart, energy, and a bright smile—just like the amazing balloon behind her! Whether guiding students or supporting staff, her leadership lifts us all. We appreciate you today and every day!

Ms. Amy’s 4th/5th Grade Class Gets a “Taste” of Reading! 🪱📚 This semester, Ms. Amy's 4th/5th grade class read 'How to Eat Fried Worms', a hilarious and memorable story where the main character eats worms for money—starting with disgust, but eventually learning to enjoy them! To bring the book to life, the students participated in a hands-on activity by tasting different types of "worms"—boiled, dehydrated, BBQ-style, and even fried! It was a creative way to connect with the character's journey and add a little adventure to literacy.
