📚💛 Our First Hispanic Family Night! 💛📚

Tonight, we were excited to welcome families to our very first Hispanic Family Night of the 2026-2027 school year! It was a wonderful opportunity to come together, build connections, and share ways we can work as partners to support our students’ success! ❤️

Throughout the evening, we talked about the importance of building reading stamina and helping our students develop the confidence and perseverance to become stronger readers. We also shared information about DIBELS and how we use reading data to better understand students’ needs and celebrate their growth.

Families learned more about Dragonfly and IXL, two resources that can help support reading and learning both at school and at home. Our goal is to make sure families feel informed, empowered, and equipped with tools to support their children as learners.

Most importantly, tonight was about relationships, belonging, and partnership. We believe that when families and schools work together, amazing things can happen for our kids!

Thank you to everyone who helped make our first Hispanic Family Night possible and to the families who joined us. We are grateful that you are part of our Mountaineer family, and we look forward to many more opportunities to learn and grow together!

🎣🎲 Friday Club Fun: Fishing & Retro Games!

🐠 Our mini-Mountaineers had another exciting Friday exploring new skills, building friendships, and learning from one another!

🕹️ Our Retro Games Club had a BLAST playing Jenga today! One of our favorite things to see is how our older students step up as leaders, encouraging and supporting our younger students as they learn to play. There was plenty of laughter, teamwork, and excitement as they worked to keep those towers standing!

🐟 Our Fishing Club is REELING in the fun! Our mini-Mountaineers are getting the opportunity to learn new skills, try something different, and enjoy time together!

💛 What we love most about our Friday Clubs is that learning goes far beyond the activity itself. When we bring students from kindergarten through fifth grade together, we create opportunities for leadership, patience, kindness, and collaboration. Our older students get to experience what it means to be role models, while our younger students gain confidence as they learn alongside their peers.

Sometimes the most important lessons happen when we simply give our students the opportunity to learn from one another! 💛🖤

🐾📚 Paws & Pages with the mini-Mountaineers!

Enrichment Fridays are all about creating meaningful experiences for our mini-Mountaineers, and we love connecting with community partners who help make those experiences possible!

This Friday, our 2nd-3rd grade span welcomed a very special visitor, Frankie the Bernedoodle and his owner, Carlos, from Highland K9! Students learned about therapy dogs, spent time getting to know Frankie, and took turns doing one of our favorite things…reading to him! 📖🐶

Frankie is a great listener. He doesn’t judge if you don’t know a word, and having him by your side can help you feel confident and strong as a reader. 💛

And we have to admit, our staff may have loved spending time with Frankie just as much as our mini-Mountaineers did! 🐾🥰

And this is just the beginning! Frankie and his therapy dog friends will be joining us for monthly visits, giving even more of our mini-Mountaineers an opportunity to participate in Paws & Pages!

Thank you, Frankie and Carlos, for spending your Enrichment Friday with us and helping our mini-Mountaineers grow as readers. We can’t wait to see you again! 🐾📚⛰️
