As we celebrate Black History Month, our 4th graders are enjoying an award winning book read by our Librarian, Miss Poskey. The students then reviewed the criteria for what makes an award winning book!

I’d say Mahomes Monday for spirit week was a success!

Our Buddy Bench has been delivered! With the help of JOCO Developmental Supports, each of our students wrote kind words and encouraging phrases that were actually used in the concrete mixture for this bench! It’s literally made from kindness! 😁

After a late night Chiefs win, there’s nothing better than starting your day with a vocabulary “snowball fight” in Mr. Green’s class!

After daylight savings time and a late night chiefs game, there’s no better way to get started on a Monday than a class morning meeting. Students get to share about their weekends, set goals for the week, and get ready to learn for the day!

Judging by the enjoyment on the students’ faces who got to pie a teacher, I’d say the Walk-A-Thon prize assembly was a success! 😂

The Fire Department is at GE today teaching our students about fire safety and prevention! Our Kindergarteners are leaning about stop, drop, and roll (with a little dancing mixed in) 😁
