💓 The final Heartbeat of the school year is here! As we head into summer break, we want to thank our students, staff, and families for an incredible year filled with learning, growth, and memories. We hope everyone enjoys a safe and relaxing summer — we will miss you and look forward to seeing everyone back in August! ☀️
Around the Halls
Our 7th graders had a great time on their field trip to the zoo! 🦁🐘 Students explored exhibits, learned about animals from around the world, and enjoyed a fun day of hands-on learning outside the classroom.
Science in action! Our sixth graders experimented with soda geysers this week and got a firsthand look at chemical reactions, pressure, and lots of excitement! 🌋🥤 Learning has never been so explosive!
Students in Design and Modeling wrapped up the school year with a hands-on choice project! Using maple bleacher boards from the old high school, several students glued up the reclaimed wood and crafted custom baseball bats on the lathe in the STEM lab. A great blend of creativity, craftsmanship, and repurposing materials into something meaningful! ⚾🔨
The 8th graders completed their 8th Grade Day this week. Teams participated in various challenges and also completed a scavenger hunt. The rainy weather did not dampen their spirits. All teams completed the scavenger hunt, even in the rain!
Congratulations to all of our students recognized at the Underclass Awards! 🎉
We are proud to recognize the effort, commitment, and achievements of our students throughout the school year.
