Students in Spanish classes celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month with a special fiesta this morning! More than 100 students gathered to listen to the music of Arkansas native, Jacob Flores. His Latin-American musical talent was on full display for our students (and a few teachers) for nearly an hour. What a fun way for these students to start their day!
A huge thank you to everyone who came out to Parent-Teacher Conferences today! It was wonderful seeing and connecting with you all. 😊
Also, a special shout out to those who took the time to write a positive note to their child. 📄✍️ These notes are such a big confidence booster and truly make a difference in their day. 💖
We appreciate everything you do to support your child’s growth and success. Thank you for partnering with us! 💪

Here’s a *cool* experiment. Our 6th grade science students conducted a cold cup test with a fancy cup and a regular cup to see which was better at keeping the water cold. Measurements were taken every ten minutes to see how much the temperature had either changed or stayed the same. Fancy cup FTW!
