Fourth Graders wrapped up their study of the human body with guest expert (and class parent) Dr. Ziegler, a heart surgeon at MUSC. He taught the children about the different parts of the heart and how they work together in our bodies. He even brought in pig hearts for the students to dissect! Fourth graders loved getting to see the inside workings of a heart! ❤️

7th graders kicked off their History in Proportion Project with a field trip downtown Charleston to tour 4 historically significant houses and studied the history of the house, explored it’s architecture, and connected it to the time period. Their final product will be a proportionally scaled 3D model of the house using a variety of different materials! We look forward to seeing their presentation on November 6th!

We are thrilled to celebrate Maggie Keim and Liz Lane as our newest Master Teachers!!!!

At the SCISA Conference, Maggie and Liz participated in the Master Teacher Pinning Ceremony, where they officially received their Master Teacher pins in recognition of their exemplary teaching.

Their portfolios highlighted recorded classroom lessons, extensive evidence of student learning, collaboration across departments, and recommendations from students, parents, and colleagues. They also shared their expertise by leading seminars for fellow independent school educators. Liz Lane led a seminar on implementing project-based learning in lower elementary. Maggie Keim led a seminar on engagement techniques for reluctant middle school writers.

We are incredibly proud of Maggie and Liz for this well-deserved honor and for the passion, creativity, and dedication they bring to our students and our school community!
