Ellen Ochoa Elementary - A Community School

What a SUPER day for our Super Kids!

Ellen Ochoa students had so much fun celebrating Super Kids Day with outdoor games, team activities, popsicles, picnic lunches, and lots of laughter with their classmates.

A special thank you to our PE coaches, Mr. Lee and Mrs. Davis, for coordinating the event and preparing students over the past two weeks so they felt comfortable and confident with the games.

Thank you to our teachers, staff, volunteers, and student helpers who made the day run smoothly. From setting up rotations to cheering students on, it took a team effort to create such a fun and memorable day for our students.

We loved seeing our students play, laugh, encourage one another, and enjoy one more special celebration together before the end of the school year.

Enjoy a few snapshots from Super Kids Day! 💙💛
