Our 4th grade students had an exciting and hands-on learning experience last week as they welcomed a special guest to campus! We were thrilled to host Geology for Kids, where Mr. Tom Olson brought the fascinating world of earth science to life.

Kindergarten Celebrates 100 Days of School - March 4
Our Kindergarten class celebrated 100 days of school all week! We finished with launching bottle rockets. They each got to design and launch their own rocket. We even launched a school rocket which had the signatures of all K-5 students. Some classes came to watch the launch! A special thank you to Dana and Andrew Bingham for helping with the launch.
