Our first graders wrapped up their reading unit on Early World Civilizations with a hands-on look at Ancient Mesopotamia! Students put their creativity and engineering skills to work building their own ziggurats using marshmallows and toothpicks. We love bringing history to life through hands-on learning!

October is a time to celebrate and recognize the amazing principals who make a difference in our school every single day! We want to give a special shout-out to Mrs. Totten, our Elementary Principal, and Mr. Swanson, our Secondary Principal!

8th graders have been learning about and making Stop Motion while in Art class this past week. This has been an extension activity after they learned about Tim Burton, his famous recognizable artist style, and his well known stop motion motion pictures. Prior to this activity, students created a Tim Burton inspired self portrait (pictures coming soon!)
