🐛🌿 Little Creatures, BIG Ideas! 🔬🌎

Our Morgan Maxwell Mountain Lions are putting their creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving skills to work with the University of Arizona! ❤️💙🦁

Today’s science challenge: How can we build arthropod apartments to increase biodiversity on our school grounds? 🐜🪲🦋

Students are exploring how to create habitats for tiny creatures while learning about biodiversity, ecosystems, and the importance of protecting our environment.

We love seeing learning come to life through hands-on experiences, real-world problem-solving, and community partnerships!
