While our older students were hard at work on their EOGs, Mrs. Bullock’s Kindergarten class was busy exercising both their brains and bodies—counting to 100 with movement! 💪💙 They had so much fun and loved showing off their knowledge to their assistant principal! Way to go, future scholars!

They enjoyed hands-on center activities with our current kindergarten students and teachers, heard an informative presentation from Mrs. Manning, and even had a special lunch in our cafeteria. We loved getting to know our newest Cubs and can’t wait to welcome them back in the fall! 💙

Today we celebrated Mrs. Thomas, one of our amazing school nurses! School Nurse Appreciation Day was Tuesday, but we waited to surprise her when she was here.

Fourth grade took a memorable trip to Historic Halifax—home of the Halifax Resolves, the first official call for independence from Britain. Students explored history up close by touring the tavern where General Lafayette once stayed, trying out a real printing press, writing with quill pens, and visiting the clerk’s office and old jail. They even explored an active archaeological dig site and wrapped up the day walking along part of the Underground Railroad. A day full of learning, discovery, and hands-on history!
