Our students had a wonderful time reading. We can't wait to host another Read-A-Thon next year! Our students logged over 23,000 minutes of reading and raised over $4000 for field day, school assemblies, student prizes, and so much more. We are so grateful for our dedicated readers and generous community!
Thanks again,

1st grade looks very Fancy for F day!


4th grade artists are studying Ugo Rondinone. He has a colorful boulder sculpture (7 Magic Mountains ) in the Mojave desert near Las Vegas, Nevada. You can see the students are really getting into color mixing and Model Magic molding. Come see the Mustang Mountains during Spark Fest on May 8.





Artists in 5th grade are learning about John Chamberlain. He makes sculptures from crushed car parts and/or aluminum foil. The students think getting their foil sculptures to stand upright is difficult. They are excited to show their families these cool sculptures during Spark Fest!





Kindergarten enjoyed a presentation about Spring from the high school Ag class. We made caterpillars that represented each student's name. Thank you Rylee and Claire for doing a fabulous job!






Kindergarten enjoyed a visit from Rylee and Claire with Ag. In the classroom. We learned all about spring and created name caterpillars.
