Every campus needs a superhero, and we’re lucky enough to have one! ❤️

For Principal Appreciation, we asked our students what they think about our very own Mr. Williams, and their answers did not disappoint! 😂 From his superhero debut to the sweet (and hilarious!) things our kids had to say, this video is a reminder of just how special he is to our campus.

Behind every great school is a leader who inspires, supports, and leads the way to success. Thank you, Mr. Williams, for being our campus superhero and for leading with heart, dedication, and a little superpower magic! 🦸‍♂️

We appreciate you more than words can say! 🏆✨

Students in Mr. Bitters's class had a chance to use their reading, writing, and research skills to learn about the Holocaust and the people who experienced it.

Students had the opportunity to analyze a timeline detailing laws and major events that took place from 1933 to 1945 that had affected the people they were researching!

We are planning our first Fall Festival. We would love for you to participate as a volunteer or if you are unable to attend on the 29th you might be interested in helping with the Amazon wish list. We think this will be a great time for our community to come together. ​We would love for our students to bring their younger siblings for a good time.

🎉 Mrs. Fry’s Spanish classes had a blast playing Lotería, a traditional Mexican game! 🇲🇽

Students learned about the cultural history of Lotería while practicing Spanish vocabulary, improving pronunciation, and strengthening word recognition with every round. The friendly competition—and Mexican candy prizes for the winners—made learning even sweeter! 🍬

A fun way to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month while learning through culture! ❤️🤍💚
