Tonight is the long awaited, highly anticipated Musical Release Party for grades 4-6!

We welcome all students in grades 4-6 to join us at the school from 6:00-8:00 to be part of the Musical Reveal Movie Night! We can't wait to hear what this year's musical will be!!

We have opened a Willi Wear store in time for holiday giving!

Willi is our sweet owl mascot who gets his name from.... WILLIamsburg, of course!

First grade has been exploring animal superpowers. We’ve talked about how baby animals have similar traits as their parents and how you can use those traits to help identify a lost baby animal. We have looked at how and why animals camouflage. The students created their own moths to camouflage throughout our classroom. We also explored different bird beaks to see how the different shapes are better for different environments.

Throughout our school, older and younger grades connect through intentionally designed activities. These relationships make for powerful connections among all our grades - allowing our older students opportunities to serve as role models, and our younger students to connect with students in the upper wing!

Here, third graders and kindergarteners enjoy Book Buddy time together!

Last week, our 4th graders had the special opportunity to hear from Williamsburg Veteran, Roy Beals, about how our town's Veterans are acknowledged. They visited the Veterans' Memorial in the center, and also walked up to a local cemetery to learn about local Veterans remembered there. Thanks, Mr. Beals!
