Eighth graders are taking a deep dive into their classroom novel, The Outsiders. Today, they dressed up as a member of either the "Greasers" or the "Socs" and held a classroom "rumble" to debate which group is better. The results weren't as obvious as they might seem...🌅✨

🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️ Superheroes on a Sneaky E Word Hunt! 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️ First graders in Ms. Genandt’s class put on their superhero skills and went on a sneaky E word hunt through the fourth grade classrooms! 🔎 Their mission was to find words with the sneaky E that make the vowel say its name, focusing on those tricky long A words! Our amazing fourth graders teamed up with our first graders to help search high and low for the hidden words. It was a super fun way to practice phonics, work together, and learn from our older friends! Way to go, Super Readers! 💥📚❤️

Today was all about mapping out future possibilities for our 8th graders!

As part of College and Career Fair day, students stepped into the world of agriculture and natural resources at the CDE Olympics. They put their skills and senses to the test with Food Science triangle testing, Livestock Judging, Dairy Foods cheese ID, Meats ID, Agronomy seed identification, and more.

It was a fantastic day of exploring future opportunities and experiencing what high school pathways have to offer. 🌟🌾
