Mrs. Levy’s second graders took on a fun challenge together! Working with partners, students had to tie Twizzlers together while keeping one hand behind their backs. This activity encouraged teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and plenty of perseverance!

What a fun way to learn together! 💚💛

Mrs. St. Julien’s second graders are making math come to life! Our students used hands-on manipulatives to practice solving addition problems and build a deeper understanding of how numbers work together.

We love seeing our Cougar Cubs learning, exploring, and having fun with math! 💚💛

Ms. Thomas’ first graders kicked off the school year by reading “First Day Jitters”, enjoying some Jitter Juice, and talking about all the feelings that come with starting a new school year!

What a fun way to remind our Cougar Cubs that it’s perfectly okay to have a few first-day jitters! 🐾

Mrs. Levy’s second graders made the most of indoor recess! From games and laughter to spending time together, they proved that fun can happen anywhere!

We love seeing our Cougar Cubs making the most of every moment! 🐾
