Thank you Mrs. Quinn for coming and teaching us about pollinators and plants that are native to our area! We got to add some coneflowers, aster, and milkweed to our pollinator garden. Then we got to throw some milkweed seeds along the creek bank! We can't wait to see the pollinator garden in the fall!

2nd Grade enjoyed our field trip to Timberlake Playhouse. We saw the play "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!" It was a great play and had us all laughing! We learned to never give up from Pigeon! Then we enjoyed a picnic lunch and some playground time at a park in Sterling!

Our students had a blast exploring their new classrooms this week and getting a sneak peek into what next year holds! They were able to ask questions, meet their future teachers, and get excited for all the new adventures ahead. It was a wonderful chance for them to see the fun and exciting things coming their way
