đź’š Happy World Kindness Day! đź’š
Today, we celebrate the power of kindness in our school community. Small acts of kindness, like a smile, a compliment, or lending a helping hand can make a big difference in someone’s day.
Let’s take this opportunity to spread kindness in every hallway, classroom, and online space.
Together, we can build a community where everyone feels seen, supported, and valued.

The kindergarten classes are participating in a multi week Halloween/monster match themed project. They created monsters and then helped write descriptions of them. Next week, they will be getting descriptions from another class (from a different school) about that class's monster to recreate it and that class will do the same with our descriptions. Finally, the classes will connect during a video conference and share their monster recreations.









The second graders spent Halloween morning building spooky spider "web" bridges in STEM.
