We hope our Parkridge Pride students are having as much winter fun as Ms. Daly's 4th-grade class did before break! Check out their Winter Stem activity of making Christmas Trees from gumdrops and toothpicks. We love to see that collaboration and creative thinking!

Parkridge alum, Connor Benjamin built and donated a second Little Free Library for our students. We placed it at the Lake Pleasant Village apartments. Take a book, leave a book. Thank you for helping us show our love of reading. Parkridge Pride at its best! ❤️💙🦁📚
