Mrs. Drees’ 3rd graders put their teamwork to the test!
Students worked together in groups to design and build their very own marble mazes. It was a fun, hands-on activity that encouraged creativity, collaboration, and strategic planning. Great job, 3rd grade!

Our 5th graders had the amazing opportunity to join a live author chat with Kate DiCamillo, the beloved author of Because of Winn-Dixie and so many other favorites! She shared an inspiring message about the importance of reading and even answered some of the students’ own questions. What a memorable experience for our young readers!

Our fifth graders celebrated the end of 1st quarter with an afternoon of Homeroom Kickball and a Water Balloon Toss! Students who showed respectful behavior and completed their work on time were also treated to a POPSICLE and prize reward for their hard work and dedication.
