What a fun fall celebration! 🍂🎃 Mrs. Briley’s class hosted a pumpkin party to celebrate learning about the pumpkin life cycle — complete with adorable “pumpkin in a cup” projects. Students explored seeds, sprouting, and pumpkin growth while sharing laughter and creativity.

What a perfect fall day at Hill Ridge Farms! 🍁 Our 2nd grade students spent the day celebrating everything autumn — hayrides, farm sights, and picking the perfect pumpkins. Every student went home with a pumpkin and plenty of smiles!

Ready for a peek at our pumpkin-packed week? 🎃 PreK students in Mrs. White's class explored a pumpkin theme through hands-on learning: painting paper plates into jack-o’-lanterns, practicing drawing and cutting shapes, building with LEGOs, and collaborating to design a “mountain ride” out of blocks. We wrapped up with playful spooky ghosts to celebrate the Halloween season!

Hands-on learning + Oreos = moon magic! 🌙🍪 Mrs. White’s 4th graders created each moon phase by twisting and scraping cookies — full moons, crescents, and new moons (and smiles!) included

What happens when science meets creativity? ✨ Mrs. Stewart’s 5th graders made a Frankenstein while learning about mixtures & solutions — and it was a masterpiece of messy, marvelous learning!

Monster eyes takeover! 👀 Kindergarteners in Mrs. Bembridge’s class made colorful, one-of-a-kind monster eyes in art — and I even made a few during a visit to Mrs. Ellis's art class.

PreK students in Mrs. Raynor’s class rocked their orange today to celebrate kindness, inclusion, and acceptance! 🧡 Small actions, big hearts!

Did someone say classroom petting zoo? 🐄📚🐥 Ms. Deckard’s students created wonderful children’s books about different kinds of livestock, visited our school to read their stories, and brought real animals for everyone to meet. It was hands-on learning at its best — laughter, curiosity, and lots of questions!

Just a friendly reminder that we dismiss at noon, tomorrow, Oct. 22. There is also no school for students on Friday, Oct. 23.

Did you catch our 2nd graders at last night’s PTA meeting? 🎤✨ They sang a lovely selection of songs — including our school song and a playful twist on “Scaring Alive!” — and absolutely stole the show. A massive shout-out to Ms. Koon for organizing and directing these bright stars.

Our kindergarteners at WPS had a special visit from the Williamston Fire Department for Fire Prevention Week. They practiced safety steps and meet real heroes.

Huge congratulations to C. Pope, M. White, and N. Grimes! 🎉
They were the big winners of our Fall Festival last week — correctly estimating the jars and taking home the prizes. Way to go! 🏆🍂

Teachers are learners too! Big thanks to Mrs. Ivey and Mrs. Long for leading an excellent MTSS PD at Tuesday’s staff meeting—helping us better support every student.
