Thank you, Fit Feet, for partnering with Ms. Stone and Ms. Woodson to ensure our students have the proper footwear they need to learn and play with confidence.

Ms. Cade’s class took learning to new heights today—working in vertical spaces to solve a multi-step addition problem using the tried-and-true standard algorithm. Those digits never stood a chance!

Today’s Science Fair Awards celebrated creativity, dedication, and a whole lot of thoughtful experimentation. Well done, scholars!

Science fair day brought out our brightest young thinkers as students proudly presented their projects to the judges. Nothing like a little real-world problem-solving to remind us that curiosity never goes out of style.

Our Drone Club took flight this morning—literally. Students tested their skills by navigating a full lap around the structure they engineered themselves. Nothing like a little STEM before sunrise!

Collaboration was the name of the game as Mrs. Sanz’s class dug into the lives of trailblazing inventors, from Edison’s lightbulb to Lamarr’s groundbreaking tech.

Our Moonshot Academy scholars took center stage today, proudly sharing their projects with families. Big ideas, bright futures, and plenty of “wow” moments all around.

Who needs cold weather? Our staff brought the winter spirit anyway—decked out in hats, scarves, and gloves as we celebrate our countdown to the winter holidays!

Thank you to the Junior League of Indian River County for your generous donation of feminine hygiene supplies. Your support helps us meet the essential needs of our young ladies and ensures they feel cared for and confident every day. We are truly grateful for your partnership and commitment to our students.

Ms. Cade and Ms. Zwemer brought the joy today... jingling their way through Wednesday like it’s Christmas Eve!

Mad About Plaid Day Our staff kicked off December in true festive fashion—plaid everywhere you turned. From classic flannel to bold patterns that would make a lumberjack proud, everyone leaned right into the fun. Cheers to a team that knows how to bring the joy, one square of plaid at a time.

Mrs. Hatcher’s class wrapped up their collaboration-building challenge in the Amplify Inventors Unit today. Students put their teamwork to the test as they worked to lift an unaltered Ping-Pong ball from the table and pass it around their group—using only a rubber band, a tissue, and two pencils. A little creativity, a little problem-solving, and a whole lot of cooperation… just the way hands-on learning has always shined.

Our second graders brought a little Macy’s magic to campus! After reading Balloons Over Broadway, they engineered their own book-character balloons and proudly paraded them through the halls and cafeteria. A classic story brought to life—literally floating by!

Mrs. Hatcher’s 4th grade class put their text-feature skills to work today as they built the parts of a turkey—proof that reading strategies and creativity make a perfect pairing this time of year.

Underground Staff Spirit Week wrapped up with a fan favorite—Decade Day! From groovy throwbacks to neon nostalgia, our staff showed up like they were ready to time-travel right into the weekend.
