Check out Mrs. Carmichael's 4th graders! They're using graffiti walls to show the theme of a poem and how a character shows a great heart from their story “Love That Dog”. 💛🐶📝
Next up, our second Sea Turtle of the Week goes to Harper from Mrs. Gruber's 3rd grade class. Harper, your school is proud of you. 💙🐢💚
It's a special week! We have TWO Sea Turtle of the Week recipients this week. First up, we're happy to share with you that Myka from Ms. Wiggins' Kindergarten class is one of our Sea Turtles of the Week . Myka, your school is proud of you. 💙🐢💚
Mrs. Stewart’s 3rd grade class (including her amazing student teacher Mrs. McCurley) had a sweet time with science during our Root Beer Float Lab! 🥤🍦🧪 Students reviewed their learning by exploring the three states of matter by identifying the ice cream as a solid, the root beer as a liquid, and the bubbles and foam as evidence of a gas. They made predictions, recorded observations, and watched how the materials changed once they were combined. Learning about matter is definitely more fun when you can eat the experiment afterward! 😋🔬
✨ Just a typical day in Pre-K! ✨From painting and building to puzzles, dramatic play, cutting, sorting, and learning together, Ms. Pleasant's Pre-K students are exploring, creating, problem-solving, and making new discoveries every day. 💛
🧐 Mrs. Edwards' first graders dove into one of their favorite classroom routines today: Notice & Wonder! They looked at Green Eggs and Ham together, and instead of rushing to find an answer, they slowed down to just be curious. In small groups, they asked each other, What do you notice? and What do you wonder? 💡Keep up the great work, first grade!
Looking for a peaceful place to read? 📚✨Our new quiet and cozy reading area at the front of the library is open! With comfy couches and books all around, it’s the perfect spot to build lifelong readers. 📚💚

Good evening Sea Turtle Famileis. Bus 284 may be a few minutes late in the morning as a result of changes in the earlier high school route. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope this update does not have much impact on elementary and middle school routes.
In Mrs. Batts' & Mrs. Summerfield's class, they have been learning about their five senses through Wit & Wisdom. Today they learned about apples and got to put their taste buds to work and explore 3 different types of apples to include: gala, granny smith and golden delicious. Then they got to enjoy an apple tasting using all 5 senses and created a class graph to show everyone´s favorite.
Mrs. Holt's 2nd graders are learning about place value. Today they bundled popsicle sticks to make groups of ten and then groups of 100. Great work, mathematicians!
Bus 288 will leave campus at 3:45 this afternoon. This is about 45 minutes behind schedule. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Feeling Dolly vibes today — it’s Dolly Day, Friday 9/25 🎶❤️ — just like her song 9 to 5. Whether you’re learning, working, dancing, or singing in the car, Dolly’s voice makes everything better.
We're happy to share with you that Noah from Ms. Newhouse's 1st grade class is our Sea Turtle of the Week! Noah, your school is proud of you. 💙🐢💚
Tomorrow morning, Bus 284 students will ride Bus 290, which will begin the route at 8:15 a.m. If you can make alternate arrangements to get your child to school, please do so. Thank you for your continued patience.
Bus 287 students left our campus on Bus 280 at 4:37 this afternoon.
Bus 288 students left our campus at 4:18 today. They are riding Bus 261.
Just a few more of our Do Good students! 💚💙
Good evening, Bus 288 families,
Tomorrow morning, Bus 288 will run as a combined route with a middle school bus. The combined route will not begin until 8:15 a.m., so students on Bus 288 will be picked up later than usual.
If you are able to bring your child to school, you are welcome to do so. We understand this is a significant disruption to your morning, and I’m sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you for your patience. We hope bus 288 will be back on schedule for next week.
