They turned their EOG review into a day full of engaging activities. Students practiced highlighting evidence from the text in ELA and used invisible ink pens to answer questions!
They also worked through math EOG review with a competitive game and even completed an escape room together as a class! 🧠🔍
It was a great day of reviewing and preparing for the EOG—their learning was definitely glowing! ✨

Kindergarten has been doing an A to Z countdown to the end of the school year. Today was N for “Next Year” day. Kindergarten students hosted some of our Pre- K students that will be in Kindergarten next school year at SCE! Here are Mrs. Monti’s students with some of Ms. Meadows’ students looking very “o-fish-al” 😉

A huge shoutout to Nurse Anita — the best ever! Thank you for the care, calm, and compassion you bring to our school every day. 💙🩺 Your kindness makes a big difference in little lives.
Let's show Nurse Anita some love in the comments below— we'd love to celebrate her!👇











Ms. Edwards' first graders in action! 🌱✨ They spent recess collecting trash on the playground to keep our school clean — showing that Earth Day can (and should) be every day. 🌎💚♻️

This week, we’re celebrating the heart, dedication, patience, creativity, and love our teachers pour into our students every single day. 🍎📚
Students and families from across our district sent in video messages to help us say one big, heartfelt THANK YOU. To make sure every school community can be celebrated together, we’ve combined the messages into one special video per school, and we’ll be sharing them throughout the week. 🎥🏫
These videos are filled with smiles, gratitude, and reminders of the incredible impact teachers make far beyond the classroom. 💛
To every teacher: thank you for showing up, lifting up, encouraging, inspiring, and believing in our students. You are appreciated more than words can say. 🌟
