👵🏽🧓🏽 Dress like you’re 100 years old!
Break out the gray hair, glasses, canes, suspenders, shawls, and slippers as we celebrate being 100 days SMARTER!

Our 1st grade learners are hard at work during tutoring—focused, engaged, and building the foundational skills they need to grow as readers and thinkers. Through small-group instruction and targeted support, our learners are strengthening confidence and making progress every day.
We’re proud of their effort and the dedication of our teachers who ensure every learner gets what they need to succeed.

Our 2nd grade team came together to analyze progress monitoring data and use it intentionally to inform instruction and refine small-group supports for learners. Through thoughtful collaboration and meaningful discussion, the team identified next steps to meet learners exactly where they are and move them forward.
A special shout-out to Mrs. Griffin for leading this work and modeling strong instructional leadership throughout the process. This is what it looks like when educators use data with purpose and keep learner growth at the center of every decision! ✨

Ms. Hurst engaged learners in problem solving as they used clay and a balance scale to explore the concept of equality. Learners practiced explaining their thinking, making predictions, and adjusting their models using hands-on materials that made learning meaningful and fun!

Our learners had an amazing time with 4-H as they planted carrots and learned how growing food takes patience, teamwork, and responsibility! We can’t wait to watch our garden grow and see the results of their hard work.
