Our 3rd graders wrapped up Read Across America Week with Day 5: Camp Reads-a-Lot! ⛺📚 Students cozied up around their “camp” spots, grabbed their favorite books, and spent time enjoying the adventure of reading together. It was the perfect way to end a week full of fun, creativity, and discovering new stories! 🔦
Our 3rd graders had a blast celebrating Read Across America Week with a fun “Book Tasting!” 📚 Students sampled books from different genres, thinking about what they liked or didn’t like, whether the author caught their attention, and if the book made them want to keep reading. To make the experience even sweeter, they enjoyed snacks and were served specialty drinks by our awesome high school “baristas.” It was a great day of discovering new books and building a love for reading! ☕📖✨
Our 3rd graders have been having a blast celebrating Read Across America Week! 📚 They’ve enjoyed fun dress-up days and have been exploring the building to find cozy and creative spots to sit and read. It’s been so much fun seeing their excitement for books and watching their love of reading grow!
Tattoo Your Teacher Day was a HIT! 🎉
Our students earned up to 9 tattoos each for showing individual growth on their ELA and Math iReady scores — and they showed UP! 💪📚
Today, 300 tattoos were handed out and proudly applied to our amazing teachers during a super fun assembly. The laughter was nonstop, the teachers were great sports, and the school spirit was through the roof!
We are beyond proud of our students for their hard work and growth. They earned every single tattoo — and definitely enjoyed putting them to good use! 🙌✨
