Celebrating Our February Leaders! We’re proud to recognize students who consistently demonstrated the powerful characteristics of Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits of Mind. These leaders showed responsibility, teamwork, initiative, and a commitment to doing what’s right—even when no one is watching. Their actions remind us what leadership looks like in everyday moments, and we couldn’t be more inspired by their example. A huge congratulations to our February Leaders, and a heartfelt thank you to our staff for nurturing these habits in our school community. Together, we’re building confident, capable leaders for the future .

Our PLTW Launch kindergarteners wrapped up their study of body systems by adding outside features to their life‑size body models. The best part came next—students tried to guess who was who and explained the clues that helped them figure it out. Such a fun way to connect learning with science and creativity!







We caught you being here!
Congratulations!
Congratulations!

Fifth graders in PLTW Launch are becoming real data detectives as they search for patterns in symptoms and information to figure out which bacteria or virus might be causing illnesses. They’re learning how scientists use evidence, observation, and critical thinking to solve real‑world health mysteries.



In Automation & Robotics, our sixth graders are discovering how mechanical systems work—starting with simple gear trains. In Project Lead the Way, students problem‑solve, collaborate, and think like engineers.


In our PLTW Launch Diversity of Life unit, second graders are investigating how living things survive in different ecosystems. Hands‑on science is helping them think like young biologists!


Mrs. Slider’s PE classes closed out their 2026 Winter Olympics Unit with a full lineup of hands‑on events. Students participated in curling, bobsledding, and a biathlon relay,. They used the final medal count table to explore differences in medal totals. Classes also rotated through stations that included both repeat activities and new experiences such as speed skating, table hockey, and the chair lift. A great blend of movement, learning, and teamwork!
