San Jose Elementary

From Kindergarten to First Grade… learning together! Our 1st graders did a fantastic job as classroom leaders this week as they welcomed our kindergarten students for a special visit! They showed them what it’s like to be a first grader by reading a story together and completing a fun writing activity side-by-side.

Gross… but absolutely awesome learning in 4th grade! This week, our 4th graders got hands-on (and a little “eww!”) as they explored owl pellets to uncover what owls eat. Students carefully dissected and analyzed their findings, discovering bones and learning all about food chains and ecosystems in a truly unforgettable way!

What an amazing surprise for our students! The Dunedin Blue Jays flew in last week and brought so much excitement to campus! Not only did they share smiles and team spirit, but they also gifted every student a lunch bag filled with snacks for the summer. What a generous and thoughtful way to kick off the season!
We are so grateful for this wonderful partnership and the kindness shown to our school community. Thank you, Dunedin Blue Jays, for making our students feel celebrated and supported!

What a special milestone! Our VPK students are moving up to Kindergarten! We are so proud to watch these little learners shine as they celebrate their growth and success in front of their families. From first letters and numbers to newfound confidence and friendships, they are more than ready for their next big adventure!
Congratulations, future kindergarteners—you did it! 🌟
