Ms. Ciccarone's 5th Grade class is reading and discussing some great books in our literature circles. #HustleAndHeartSetUsApart

Mrs. McFarland's 3rd Grade class read a story and used collaborative discussion questions to respond to questions about the story in groups. Learning to talk about and answer questions together is a great way to understand what we are reading! #HustleAndHeartSetUsApart

AGR 2nd graders were hard at work in art, putting the BeaverBot to good use! 🎨📦 This kid-friendly cardboard-cutting machine gives students the opportunity to take their creativity beyond traditional elementary art materials and bring their big ideas to life.

A follow-up to the "Great Things Happen Here!" mural, which premiered today; we couldn't be more proud of how it turned out! This colorful addition to our cafeteria celebrates the creativity, curiosity, and learning that happen every day in our school.
A very special thank you to Mrs. Harpring for sharing her incredible artistic talent and vision to bring this mural to life. We are also so grateful to her children, who spent their time helping sketch, paint, and add the finishing touches. Their teamwork, creativity, and hard work made this project even more meaningful.
This mural is more than just artwork—it's a daily reminder that every student who walks these halls has the opportunity to create, discover, and achieve great things.
Thank you, Mrs. Harpring and family, for leaving such a lasting gift for our school community! ❤️🖤
