5TH GRADE ENGINEERS // Our 5th grade Unicorns kicked off the first week by jumping right into the Engineering Design Process! 🧠⚙️
Students put their creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving skills to the test to see who could design and build the tallest skyscraper! 🏗️📏
What a fun way to start the year, thinking like engineers, working together, and learning through a little friendly competition! 💡🙌

This may have been a fun video to make, but we wanted to shout out our incredible custodial staff who have been working hard perfecting our school to welcome back our Unicorns! They are the unsung hero’s of our school and we have the best of the best! 💚🧹🧼

PRE-FILLED SUPPLY BOXES ARE LIVE! // Click the link below to order a pre-filled supply box straight to your HOME! 🏡✂️📝📚✏️
https://schooltoolbox.com/school-supplies/school/list-boxes/?schoolId=229799
*Please note that this is different from last year where boxes were sent directly to the school. This is not required, as some families prefer shopping for supplies in store.*
When you buy school supplies through our partnership with School Tool Box, you’re setting up your child for classroom success. You’re also feeding a hungry child.
School Tool Box donates one meal to Feed My Starving Children for every box of school supplies sold. They’ve donated 1.5 million meals so far.
Order today and help two kids with one box.
