"Yesterday, the 3rd grade class put on an incredible presentation for the 1st graders all about the water cycle! They broke down how it works in such a fun way and even performed an awesome song about it. It was a fantastic mix of learning and entertainment!"
Our second day of colcha embroidery with our guest colcha artists was full of incredible creativity and participation from our students! Check out the blog post to see more pictures of our students in action (and find out how much all that yarn in the classroom was worth...!).

A little end of the week fun in high school art!
Our high school sports teams had away games today leaving our class half-full, so we pivoted to a partner-based STEAM activity building Lego bridges. The winning bridge was a foot long, 5 inches tall, and held 22 books! Now that's some pretty impressive ARTchitecture.

A HUGE shout-out to the high school students who performed in today's showing of The Milagro Beanfield War, the play! We are so proud of our students and the work they have put in to perform this two-hour production, where they are each a number of different characters. Well done, everyone!
Good morning,
We are excited to announce that tomorrow's special performance of the Milagro Beanfield War, a play starring many of our talented high school students, will be open to MS/HS families to come and enjoy. The performance will begin at 8:30 am in the auxiliary gym.
