Otter Fun Run Event Day Was a Success! 🎉

Our Otter Fun Run event was incredible! Thank you to our amazing volunteers for creating such a fun experience for our students.

We did it! We reached our goal of $17,000. 🎉 In fact, thanks to your generosity and support, we raised over $21,000 to help Mississippi Elementary School! We are so grateful to the PTO for hosting this fundraiser.

Thanks to Great Wolf Lodge, all registered families will receive their day passes in their emails in a few days! Plus, watch for one more email with a special discount code to Great Wolf Lodge to help plan your own family getaway!

📚 Learning in Action! 🎬

Little chefs, big fall flavor! Kindergarten students got hands-on carving apples for a cozy slow-cooker apple crisp that made the whole hallway smell amazing!

Bright minds at work! Our 5th graders built circuits to investigate magnetism, using fair tests to control variables and light up their scientific thinking!

High fives all around! Our first graders are jumping into math as they practice skip counting by 5s to build their number sense and counting fluency.
