Mrs. Brantley’s third graders are serving up strong opinions! Students are learning about opinion writing by debating a classic question: hamburgers or pizza? They’re sharing reasons, using evidence, and having a little fun while building powerful writing skills!

Parents, our front office is overflowing with lost coats and hoodies. Has your student been missing their coat and/or hoodie? Please check with the office soon. #shine

Third grade math in action! Our students are working in cooperative groups to problem-solve real-world math challenges, sharing ideas, explaining their thinking, and learning from one another.

Cocoa and Cookies PBIS Celebration!

Happy 100th Day of School!
January 26, 2026

Mrs. Lopez's 3rd grade students are sharpening their opinion writing skills by tackling an important question: Pizza or hamburgers? 😄 They’re learning how to state an opinion, give reasons, and support their thinking—one delicious debate at a time!

These students showed up every single day this week—no absences, no excuses! 👏 Keep up the great work and thank you for making school a priority!

Books + teamwork = awesome learning! 📚✨ Our 5th graders are rocking their literature circles with great discussions and thoughtful insights.

Ms. Murray & Mrs. Kight’s 4th grade students explored unit fractions through real-world problem solving. Using pizza shop orders and Hershey bars, students practiced adding and subtracting fractions in a hands-on, meaningful way!

It's time for another PBIS Celebration.

📚 4th Grade ELA in Action!
Mrs. Matthews’ students did a fantastic job learning about different types of texts—historical, scientific, and technical. Students were engaged, eager to participate, and used hands-on strategies to show their understanding. Great learning happening in the classroom! 👏✨

📚⏰ Attendance Matters!

Every school day counts, and being present makes a big difference in student success. Thank you for partnering with us to ensure students are at school, on time, and ready to learn each day. Let’s work together to build strong habits and keep our students on track! 💙💛
