Our students spent the last period of the day signing yearbooks, enjoying time with friends, and soaking up the sunshine as we celebrated another wonderful year together.
We wish all of our students, families, and staff a safe, relaxing, and fun-filled summer. ☀️ We'll see you in September!

🌿🔬 Our 6th grade science students explored the incredible biodiversity right here on our school campus!
After identifying local animals and organisms, each student selected one species to research in depth — discovering its role in the ecosystem, unique adaptations, and importance to our environment.
Today, students presented their findings to peers, answered thoughtful questions, and refined their presentations to share with their friends and family this evening.

What’s on the menu in Family and Consumer Sciences (FACS) class? They’re dishing up granola!
Class periods are a little shorter on Wednesdays, so these student chefs really oat-did themselves whipping up this quick breakfast favorite!

Students learn so many great skills in our FACS (Food And Consumer Science) classes…but this one is just a little sew-sew 😊. We found 6th graders embroidering special projects today that started as a simple pattern cut from fabric. As many of our persistent students found out, this project is a little tougher than it seams!
