Our first graders had the BEST 🤪Wacky Wednesday🤪- our reminder to not let bad choices scramble the picture. They showed off their backwards clothes and silly accessories!🙈 They are loving Red Ribbon Week so far!❤️ #WhereLeadersSoar

Our 5th graders had a 🔆 bright 🔆 time exploring how light behaves! 💡They investigated how light can be reflected, refracted, absorbed through fun, hands- on lab stations! 🥼

Last week our 4th graders took a trip back in time at Caddo Mounds State Historic Site in Alto, Texas! Students explored the rich history and culture of the Caddo people, walked the ancient mounds, and learned about how the Caddo tribe lived, worked, and thrived right here in East Texas. It was an amazing hands-on experience that brought our Texas history lessons to life! ❤️📚

Exploring Our 5 Senses in Pre-K!  Our little eagle scientists had so much fun discovering the world through their senses — from sniffing mystery smelly jars, feeling textures in creative collages, listening to the pop of popcorn, to tasting and seeing all sorts of sensory surprises!
