Maddox emulates positivity and joy in the classroom. He is well liked by others and is often seen smiling at others in the hallways, and Mrs. Ariens' appreciates his hard work in Reading class!

6th Grade Science

During a photosynthesis unit, Mrs. Ariens’ Science classes experimented with microscopes and leaves to observe, describe, and collaborate. Even though the microscopes didn’t work completely as expected, students pushed through and did their best.
