Mrs. Raines took some seniors to attend the Rosecrans 139th Airlift Wing’s Career Fair today and learned a lot about career opportunities in the military! What a wonderful experience!

Today’s third-grade learning journey was about subtraction with base ten blocks, and our students absolutely crushed it!
From using base ten blocks to breaking down complex problems with the standard algorithm, our students are making incredible strides in their math skills.
Through hands-on practice, they’re not just solving equations; they’re understanding the ‘why’ behind the math! 🤔✏️

Our sixth grade students took on an exciting challenge! They worked in teams to solve a puzzle with 4 pieces, demonstrating their problem-solving skills.
In a twist of excitement, they were given a 5th piece, and tasked with figuring out how it fits into the puzzle they had already completed. 🤔🧩 This activity mirrors what happens in the world of science when researchers receive new data and need to reevaluate their hypotheses and conclusions.
