🍎🥪 Celebrating National School Lunch Week! 🦅

This week, October 12–16, we're joining schools across the country in celebrating National School Lunch Week, a nationwide campaign highlighting the importance of healthy school meals and the positive impact they have on students' health, well-being and academic success!

A nutritious school lunch is more than just a meal. It provides students with the energy and nutrients they need to stay focused, engaged and ready to learn throughout the day. Healthy meals help fuel growing minds and bodies, setting students up for success both inside and outside the classroom! 💛

👏 A special shoutout to our incredible MIS kitchen staff! Their hard work, dedication and commitment to serving our students make a meaningful difference each day. We are grateful for the care they put into making sure our Eagles are fueled and ready to soar!

☀️🔥 6th Grade STEAM is Heating Up! 🎨🦅

Our 6th graders are jumping into an exciting year of creativity, collaboration and hands-on learning!

☀️ Solar Oven Challenge: Students are putting their engineering skills to work as they explore thermal energy transfer by designing solar ovens! Their goal? Capture and trap enough thermal energy to melt a delicious s’more. 🍫🔥 We can’t wait to see their designs come to life—and enjoy the sweet results!

A HUGE thank-you to our MIS families who donated supplies to help make this hands-on learning experience possible! ❤️

🎨 Creative Collaboration: Our Eagles are also showing off their artistic side! Each student is designing popsicle sticks with their own colors, patterns and personal touches. The individual pieces will then come together to create collaborative art displays representing our entire 6th-grade family of 350+ students!

From engineering and problem-solving to creativity and teamwork, our 6th graders are off to an AMAZING start! 🦅✨

Stay tuned to see these projects come together!

🚀🛠️ 5th Grade STEAM is off to an AMAZING start! 🦅

Our 5th graders have been busy thinking, creating and problem-solving! First, they put their engineering skills to the test by designing zipline carriers to safely—and quickly—transport a LEGO passenger. Along the way, students explored friction, tested different materials and showed some awesome teamwork! 👏

Next stop… SPACE! 🚀🌎 Students explored official NASA mission patches and learned how astronauts use colors, shapes and symbols to tell the story of their missions. Now, they’re designing their own personal mission patches to showcase who they are, what they love and who they hope to become!

What a great way to launch into our upcoming space-themed STEAM adventures! 🌟🚀
