Spring Forward!

Hello sunshine and longer days! ☀️

Today our students rolled up their sleeves and became little chefs!

With GreenBeetz, they got hands-on mashing fresh avocados and learning how to make delicious guacamole and mango salsa. 🥑🥭

Through this fun cooking experience, students explored fresh ingredients, practiced teamwork, and learned how healthy foods can be both nutritious and delicious. Activities like this help build healthy habits while making learning interactive, engaging, and full of flavor!
