Sometimes, we have some extra fuzzy friends join us at school! Meet Pumpkin and Peanut! Our students get the chance to learn all about these sweet friends, brush their hair, lead them around, and even give them a special treat! Some of our friends have already had their turn meeting them, while others are still counting down until their visit in the coming months!
These friends have been working on taking turns, following game rules, and working together! Games Club, taught by Mrs. Miller, is always a fun time while also helping our friends build so many important skills!
Too much cuteness for just one post! We saw so many characters come to life in our hallways!
A little pumpkin patch fun!
Did you make a pumpkin creation at home? We'd love to see it!

Ms. Bramel, Ms. Woelfel, and Ms. Sturdevant’s preschool class had a great field trip learning all about community helpers!
Our pre-school friends had so much fun exploring, learning, and seeing how people in our community work together to help others. What a fun day of hands-on learning! 💛

Mrs. Baxter’s class has been having such a special time learning about different cultures in their classroom! What started with their geography unit has grown into something even more meaningful, with families coming in to share and connect with the students. 💛
So far, they’ve learned about Ukraine, Brazil, and Guatemala, and it has truly been a wonderful experience for everyone!

Mrs. Alcott’s class had an AWESOME day glowing and growing at their Glow Party! From neon fun to glowing smiles, these students lit up the classroom with excitement, teamwork, and friendship! What a bright way to celebrate all of their hard work!
Meet Mrs. Jessie!
What’s cooler than a science teacher, library teacher, and robotics teacher? Having all three wrapped into one amazing teacher!
Our students absolutely love learning with her. She brings science to life in such exciting ways, helps spark a true love of reading as students explore books in the library, and makes robotics come alive with Dash the robot in robotics club. Every day with her is filled with curiosity, creativity, and joy!
Mrs. Jessie has such a kind and welcoming heart, and she makes every student feel seen, supported, and excited to learn. We are so grateful for the energy, care, and passion she brings into our school each day. She truly makes our school shine a little brighter!
Does your student have a picture or story with Mrs. Jessie? Let us know! We would love to hear!!

🎉 Incredible Work! 🎉
This outstanding student has been committed all year long to following the 5 STEPS: Stopping and Thinking, Trying Their Best, Expressing Themselves, Playing Nice with Others, and Using Safe Hands and Safe Feet. That kind of consistency, effort, and positive attitude truly makes a difference. We are so proud! 🌟
These badges recognize students who go above and beyond following our 5 STEPS each and every day. Ask your child which badges they have earned so far. You might be surprised by all they have accomplished! 🏅

We just wrapped up our CKLA farm unit and our students had so much fun becoming little opinion writers 🐄🐖🐓
Each student chose a farm animal they would want and explained why it was their favorite. From cows that give milk to chickens that lay eggs and pigs that love to play in the mud, our friends had thoughtful reasons and big ideas to share. We are so proud of the way they turned their opinions into real writing and used what they learned during our farm study.
Way to go, writers! 🌾✏️

Mrs. Jones’ class worked so hard working together and following the 5 STEPS that they earned a stuffy party! Their teamwork, listening skills, and kindness toward each other really paid off. We are so proud of this group for showing what it means to be a classroom family. Way to go, friends!
