We may have a future engineer on our hands. After building her boat, which even included a propeller, this preschooler was nice enough to let her friends try it out!

Third grade students worked on building skate parks in science. Before they could build their skate park, they first had to learn about forces and motions. They experimented to learn the effects of a curved path versus an open floor.

We love allowing prospective future educators the opportunity to come into our school and get a glimpse of what it is like to be a teacher. This one holds a special place in our hearts, as it is one of our own former students.

We love when parents come to visit - especially when they drive something as cool as a semi! A parent of one of Ms. Cathy's students stopped by and told students a little about her job. Our students then had the opportunity to climb up into the cab of the semi. Thank you for visiting, Sue!
