Floor Dives & High Fives: 4/5 Boys District Volleyball! 🏐
Between the dive-and-save hustle, high-five reset energy after every single point, and serves that barely cleared the tape (in the absolute best way), they played with heart from the first whistle to the last set.
Huge thanks to the coaches for keeping them grounded and the sidelines loud. You made us proud, boys! 👏

Full Speed Ahead in Inquiry!
(And to our parents... sorry about the grass stains!)
Our students have been putting their problem-solving and engineering skills to the ultimate test, building and test-driving their very own billy carts!
From brainstorming designs and measuring materials to assembling wheels and taking them for a spin, everyone jumped in with total enthusiasm. It was an incredible hands-on way to explore science, teamwork, and practical design.
