We are beginning with the end in mind, as students and staff worked towards goals this week.

Students in third grade have been increasing their fluency with addition and subtraction, as well as spreading kindness as they assisted peers.

Thin Win-Win!

Being proactive!

Winter arrived this week!

We had a very kind grandma donate several hats and scarves that she had knitted. We also had kind people in the community donate gloves to our students.

A big thank you!

Students in Kindergarten have been building a caring community in their classroom.

They used synergy as they made a plan, beginning with the end in mind, to create a teepee with only one piece of paper and one long piece of tape.

Seeking first to understand, then to be understood!

We ended the week with Thanksgiving Lunch, and wearing college shirts and sweatshirts.

Thank you to all the families that came to eat lunch!
