Shoutout to the out-of-this-world teacher!
Mrs. Weldele is the definition of a go-getter, always going above and beyond to make sure her students reach new heights. She’s dedicated to ensuring that every lesson is an opportunity for her students to learn at the highest levels, and her energy is nothing short of contagious! Her commitment to excellence in education is shaping tomorrow’s leaders today. We’re lucky to have such an inspiring educator in our community!
This week in First Grade had a blast learning with LEGO! Students explored engineering, and creativity as they designed structures, counted shapes, and worked together on fun group projects. It's amazing to see our little builders in action!
Way to go, STUCO! What an AMAZING idea!
Introducing the Kind Snowmen —a fantastic initiative from our Student Council (STUCO) to celebrate acts of kindness around the school. Every time a student shows kindness, they get to add a cotton ball to their grade level snowman!
It’s so exciting to see how quickly these snowmen are getting covered! A huge shoutout to STUCO for bringing this heartwarming idea to life. Let’s keep spreading kindness and filling those snowmen with good vibes!
