A huge shout out to Naomi Messer for making a PERFECT SCORE on her Social Studies TCAP Test last year!! Way to go, Naomi!

We're excited to share a new school-wide initiative led by our school counselors, Mrs. Ray and Ms. Baker, focused on the power of GOOD. Throughout the year, our students will explore ways to shift their perspective and understand that even on challenging days, there is always something positive to discover. By encouraging students to see the good, find the good, and do the good, we hope to foster a community of kindness, resilience, and optimism throughout our school. "Because sometimes, finding just a little good can make all the difference."

Our 5th graders are exploring physical and chemical changes in science this week! Today, they observed an exciting Cola and Mentos demonstration and discussed the science behind the reaction.

Due to the safety of our school, we are only allowing Kindergarten parents to walk students into school starting next week. Our kindergarten will earn independence on September 8th!

Please join us at our Annual Title I meeting on August 18th at 5:00 pm! We look forward to seeing you all 💜💛
