🚀 Last week, our 6th graders took an OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD field trip!
First stop: the Planetarium, where students took an immersive ride through the Solar System and revisited every planet they've explored this year. 🪐
Next stop: the Museum, where our Grizzlies showed off their knowledge of wilderness animals, wavelengths, and food chains — and truly impressed the staff! 🦅🔬
These students never miss a chance to shine. Way to show off that amazing Grizzly attitude! 🐾
