Kindergarteners are painting! Students used dark and light brown to create texture to their squirrel.
All elementary students Preschool through 5th grade created a strand in our new chandelier. This creation hangs in the center of our cafeteria for all to admire.
Ms. Giessman's 6th grade science class concluded their space unit with a fun project. They used their imaginations and critical thinking skills to create a travel brochure, presentation and model of a "place in space to vacation". I am so proud of the creativity and excitement these kids showed!
