Our students got to take their interpretation of the Disney Musicals in Schools to Starlight. The big stage didn’t intimidate them when acting, singing, and dancing “Be Prepared” from Lion King Kids. 👏👏👏 What a learning experience!

May has been filled with many celebrations: let us introduce to you Gladstone Elementary’s Glory Award winners! These students exemplify fraternity, education, truth, virtue, temperance, and honor. We couldn’t be prouder of their leadership and feel honored that State Representative Wick Thomas revived this tradition to celebrate them. In today’s world it is important to not overlook the good right in front of us.
