Claim It Before It’s Gone!
Speaking of uniforms… our lost and found is bursting at the seams. To help reunite students with their missing items, our Lost and Found will be relocated to the breezeway through the end of the school year. Parents are welcome to stop by and search for anything their child may have misplaced. Any unclaimed items remaining after the last day of school will be donated. Don’t miss your chance to recover what’s been lost!

On Thursday, 4th Grade stepped into the spotlight during the Living Art Museum. Portraying famous works of art and their painting masters, our Sparks detailed the fascinating history of many historical paintings, including works from Vincent van Gogh, Edvard Munch, and Leonardo da Vinci. Their creativity truly brought history to life, and we are so proud of their hard work as we wrap up the school year!
