Ms. Srigley’s 6th graders are bringing science to life as they use hands-on models to explore the function of the cell membrane! Students are discovering that the cell membrane acts as the gatekeeper of the cell — carefully controlling what moves in and out to keep everything in balance. When they zoom in close, they’re learning that the membrane’s structure resembles soap bubbles, made of tiny molecules arranged in a flexible, protective layer.
Students in Ms. Hatcher's class used a double bubble map to compare and contrast two texts about Paul Revere’s Ride. By analyzing how each author presented the same historic event, they sharpened their ability to identify similarities, differences, perspective, and key details.
Our 6th graders took a swing at golf in PE today ⛳️

Second grade took math off the page and onto their feet today! 🧮 Students practiced plotting three-digit numbers by creating a human number line during morning meeting in Ms. Napier's class.
Students in Ms. Porter's class rolled up their sleeves and put their math skills to work using play money to practice adding decimals. Hands-on learning made those place values click as dollars and cents came together with confidence.
Many thanks to WPTV Fox 29 meteorologist Kate Wentzel for bringing the forecast to life for our kindergartners today! ☀️🌧️

Mark your calendars for the Glow Social!
Hands-on science in action! 🪨✨ Mrs. Porter’s 4th grade students turned their metamorphic rock models into “sediments” today, simulating weathering and exploring the rock cycle firsthand.
Our 6th graders stepped back in time today—building timelines to spotlight the brilliance of African American inventors! From everyday items we use without a second thought to groundbreaking innovations, students connected prior learning about historical impact with hands-on research and collaboration.
