🎒✏️ BIG NEWS, FUTURE PANTHERS! 🐾💙

Our Kindergarten classrooms still have a few spots waiting for some amazing little learners! 🌟

If you have a future Kindergarten Panther—or know someone who does—we’d love to welcome them to the State St. family! Our scholars get to learn, explore, make friends, and grow in a school community that believes in making every day meaningful (and fun!).

📚 Kindergarten openings are available NOW!

✨ Math is making us wonder! ➗🐾

Our scholars have been diving into our new Eureka² Math curriculum, and they are LOVING it! While we’ve proudly used Eureka Math for years, this year we took it a step further with Eureka²—an updated curriculum designed to spark wonder, curiosity, and deeper understanding.

Our Panthers are getting to make math tangible, explore new ideas, ask questions, and discover the “why” behind their learning. 📚🔢✨

We can’t wait to see where their curiosity takes them this year!

🐾💙 There’s no better way to kick off the school year than with a State St. Pep Rally! 🎉

One of our favorite beginning-of-the-year traditions brought our Panthers together for an afternoon full of energy, school spirit, and lots of fun!

Scholars showed off their homeroom chants 📣, we proudly sang the State St. Creed 💙, and we welcomed and celebrated our incredible teachers! 👏🏽

The Panther pride was LOUD, and we’re ready for an amazing year! 🐾✨

🚌💙 Our Panthers are on the move! 💙🐾

There’s nothing quite like seeing those buses roll in and watching our scholars arrive ready to learn, grow, and have a great day! From the first stop of the morning to the ride home, we’re grateful for the drivers and staff from First Student who help get our Panthers where they need to be safely each day.

🐾💙 And that’s a wrap on our first full week of school! 💙🐾

What a week it has been! From new routines and new friendships to big learning and lots of growth, our scholars have already been making their mark. 📚✨

We’re so excited to see where this school year takes our Panthers and all the amazing things they’ll accomplish along the way!

✨ It’s a full-circle moment! ✨

Day 1 brought a pretty special surprise! 💙

While volunteering at State Street on the first day of school, Diana Wakim from United Schools, recognized a former middle school student—whose daughter is now a State Street scholar! 🥹🐾

We love seeing how our school communities connect across generations. From being a student herself to now watching her daughter begin her own United Schools journey, it’s a beautiful reminder that the impact of education lasts far beyond the classroom.

Classrooms are ready…let's do this! 🎉📚

A huge shoutout to First Merchants for helping us get our classrooms set up and ready to welcome scholars for Day 1!

Kindergarten is off to a JOYFUL start! 🐾💙

Our youngest Panthers jumped into their first day with so much excitement! From exploring their new school and meeting their teachers to playing, laughing, and making new friends, our Kindergarten scholars were ready to discover all that their new school has to offer.

These first-day moments are the beginning of so many wonderful memories. 📸✨

We can’t wait to watch our Kindergarten scholars learn, grow, and shine throughout the year!
