🌟 Student of the Month Rock Stars! 🌟 We are so proud of these incredible students who truly shone bright last month month! 💛 They were recognized for the kindness quality of Empathize—showing care, understanding, and compassion for others—and the learner quality of Ponder—thinking deeply, asking great questions, and reflecting on their learning. 🧠✨ Way to lead with both heart and mind! We are lucky to learn and grow with you. Keep shining! ⭐👏

✨ Hands-on history in 1st grade! ✨ We’re starting the year strong by mixing learning with creativity—our first graders used Play-Doh to create artifacts inspired by the Maya, Inca, and Aztec civilizations. 🏺👐 So much curiosity, teamwork, and joy as students explored the past through play. Learning is more meaningful (and more fun!) when little hands are busy creating big ideas. 💛
