K.C. Ling -

Today we’re celebrating the magic of stories on National Storytelling Day! Mrs. Grandy had her 3rd graders completely captivated as she brought a story to life with expression, excitement, and heart. There’s something so special about gathering together, turning pages, and letting our imaginations take us on an adventure.

Moments like these build strong readers, big thinkers, and even bigger dreamers. 💙

It doesn’t get much better than breakfast for lunch… especially when it comes with a side of smiles! Our friends were all grins today as they enjoyed emoji breakfast sandwiches in honor of National “Let’s Laugh Day.” From silly faces to full-on giggles, laughter truly is the best ingredient!

Here’s to finding joy in the little things and sharing plenty of smiles along the way. 😊

We’ve been loving our Mystery Readers in Ms. Bouchard's classroom during Reading Month! Each visit has brought a fun surprise to match the theme of the story, keeping our students engaged, excited, and always guessing who might be next!

A special shoutout to one of our readers for gifting us another book from the series she shared with our students. What a thoughtful way to keep the excitement going!

Mrs. Wieland’s 4th graders were plugged in and powered up for Science Education Day! Students rolled up their sleeves and learned how electrical outlets work by building their own models. From wires to circuits, they explored the science behind the switches and gained a hands-on understanding of how electricity safely flows through our homes. 💡

We love seeing our Huskies spark curiosity, ask questions, and dive into real-world learning experiences. The future is bright!

Have a great weekend, Huskies!

Earmuffs on and recess fun in full swing! 🧣❄️ Today we’re celebrating National Earmuff Day while our Huskies bundle up and make the most of snowy recess days. We’re already dreaming of the day when the snow melts, coats come off, and recess is back on bare ground—but until then, the fun (and the earmuffs) continue! 💙🐾

Our students #BringTheMagic even after school! Some of our amazing 3rd graders spent time during after-school tutoring reading with our kindergartners, helping them practice their reading skills and build confidence. Not only were our younger Huskies working on their literacy, but our older students were showing wonderful leadership, patience, and kindness.

Learning is even more fun when we do it together!
