We are overwhelmed with kindness in our 3rd grade class! 🌟 Our students have been reading heartfelt cards, letters, and emails from all over the world. They marked locations on the map with hearts, bringing joy and excitement to our classroom!
Engaging young learners through play is essential! Our kindergartners are practicing their teen numbers with a creative dice game, fostering teamwork and collaboration. This approach not only enhances their math skills but also builds social connections.

Today, our students engaged in an exciting hands-on activity in personal finance! They worked in small groups and rolled a dice to determine which interview question they would tackle. They had the opportunity to grade each other's verbal responses, providing constructive feedback and honing their skills.
Amazing things happen when the community comes together! Our second graders had a wonderful opportunity to create snowflake crafts alongside residents at the assisted living center.
We deeply value this special connection and look forward to partnering with the residents again soon!

As we return from break, we’ve spent some time focusing on important teach-tos—reminders of school expectations and routines to help students smoothly transition back after a two-week break. Through our play-based, developmentally appropriate program, students explore spatial relationships, sequencing, patterns, self-help, and peer interactions—all through the power of play. (And yes, we also had some fun in the snow!) When we walk down the hallway we can earn a spin of the wheel to decide a fun way to make the trek...our spin can prompt us to become sharks, fish, queens/kings, marshmallows, butterflies, eagles, etc.
Our 8th graders have been diving into the exciting world of graphing equations! Today, they practiced not only graphing on paper but also utilizing online platforms to visualize their equations.
The highlight? Finding the point of intersection! This skill is crucial as it helps students understand how to solve systems of equations and see where two lines meet.
This week, our Pre-K class had so much fun reading If You Give a Mouse a Cookie! 🐭🍪 The kids worked on sequencing the story and putting the events back in order. They did an amazing job remembering what happens next!
Our school family, took awkward family photos!!!
Our talented 2nd and 6th graders joined forces for a watercolor art session! These young artists brought their imaginations to life as they prepared pieces for January’s Bank Art display at Points West Bank.
Stop by to see their amazing work this month—it’s a beautiful celebration of creativity, collaboration, and community. We’re so proud of our students for making art that shines!

Happy New Year! Our third graders had a blast playing new math games to kick off the year! As we dive back into our school routine, they continue sharpening those math skills
This week, our third graders kicked off an exciting kindness project! We're on a mission to gather cards filled with kind words from all 50 states and around the world by February 14. Over the past couple of days, our students have been writing kind messages to other participating classes. We're thrilled to already receive wonderful notes from friends in Germany, England, Denmark, and Mexico! Help us spread the love.
Go Cougars!

Teachers are the ultimate multi-tools, always ready to meet the needs of their students. In one day, they might:
🔧 Fix confidence with a pep talk.
🧰 Build curiosity through engaging lessons.
🛠 Solve problems as a mentor and guide.
📏 Measure progress and celebrate achievements.
🎨 Inspire creativity with out-of-the-box thinking.
📚 Share knowledge as a lifelong learner.
🤝 Offer a listening ear when life feels tough.
Whether they’re planners, motivators, counselors, cheerleaders, or role models, teachers shape lives far beyond the classroom walls. They equip students with the tools to grow, dream, and succeed.
