You think an SRO’s job is to protect students…

But sometimes, it looks like this. 🥹📚

Because safety starts with relationships. 💙

There's one part of the school day students are always ready to talk about: lunch. 🍎

Our students have the scoop. Watch to see what's being served!

A great school year is made up of more than assignments and grades. It's the friendships, supportive teachers, new experiences, classroom wins, and moments that make students excited to come back each day.

We asked our students what makes a school year great, and their answers give us a look at what matters most to the people at the center of everything we do. 💛📚

First grade is all about building the skills students will use throughout their school journey. 📚💻

In this classroom, students are using technology with personal blending boards to practice building words, connecting sounds, and strengthening their reading skills.

It's a great example of how Murphy educators use engaging tools to make learning interactive while helping students build confidence one word at a time.

School is more than a building students walk into each morning. It's the teachers who know their names, the friends they look forward to seeing, the activities they enjoy, and the classrooms where they feel comfortable being themselves.

That's the kind of school community we're proud to build at Murphy. 🎒💛

Today's classroom activity could spark tomorrow's problem solver. 🔧☀️

Our fifth graders built solar fans while exploring renewable energy and working through the design process. They had opportunities to collaborate, troubleshoot, and see how science can be applied to something they create themselves.

We're proud of our teachers for giving students meaningful ways to learn by doing.
