Quantum Parent Bulletin #33

We're Gaga For Gaga Ball!
Two of our amazing 8th graders, Emma O. and Regan M. designed, built, and installed a Gaga Ball pit on our playground as part of their Girl Scout Silver Award! They facilitated the entire project from obtaining funding, researching and designing the pit, and then coming in on a Sunday with their families to construct it.
Our students have been having a blast playing Gaga Ball at recess and we're excited to have this pit on our campus for years to come. Thank you Emma and Regan as well as their incredible parents for their support and generosity towards our school.
Enrichment Class Highlights
Check out what our students accomplished on their final day of the last round of Enrichment just before Spring Break!
Ms. Miramontes’s class was hard at work putting the finishing touches on decorations for the upcoming Glow Dance, showing off their creativity and teamwork.
Mr. Ward’s Sportsmanship through Baseball class gave students the chance to build skills on the field while learning the importance of teamwork and positive competition.
Meanwhile, Ms. Hudgins’s KNEX Engineering class challenged students to think like engineers as they designed and constructed imaginative structures and built collaboration skills.
