2nd Grade

The snow in March was the perfect snow for building snowmen at recess! It was so fun to play outside in the snow with friends.

3 year old Preschool

The 3-year-old preschool students were excited to visit Pizza Ranch and learn about how they make their pizzas. The students have been engaging in a baking study and learning all about baking and recipes! This field site visit gave us information on how restaurants bake their foods and how they measure their ingredients. The preschoolers loved seeing the oven with a continuously moving belt to move the pizzas all the way through and bake. They also enjoyed eating the finished product, a delicious cheese pizza!
