🌳🍏 We're thrilled to announce that the Class of 2024 has left a beautiful mark on our community! With gratitude for the support and inspiration received during their time here, they've planted a Gala Apple tree in Touchet Park. 🍏🌳 This tree symbolizes growth, unity, and the enduring bonds forged during their academic journey. As it flourishes, so too will the memories and connections shared in this special place. 🌟 Thank you, Class of 2024, for your generosity and commitment to giving back. Your legacy will continue to inspire generations to come! ❤️💙

Our third graders spent their morning yesterday, working through robotic stations led by Mrs. Crenshaw and her daughters Kinley and Macie. In the first station students explored Z Space 3D computers. They could choose from a variety of science curriculum options like the water cycle, the anatomy of the heart, or the solar system. They were enthralled to see the inside of the heart in 3D and to be able to manipulate and dissect it virtually. Also at that same station, was a pair of Virtual Reality (VR) goggles where the students could explore different geographical regions and monuments like the Statue of Liberty. Station 2 consisted of Vex Go robot building. The students logged on to directions on their chromebooks that guided them through how to assemble their chosen robot. Stations 3 and 4 involved coding different robots using different coding strategies and commands. Overall, the students were actively engaged in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) learning and problem solving for 90 minutes with little sign of tiring and requesting we, “Do this again!” It was a great day to be a third grader!!
