Walking into school looked a little different for our 3rd and 4th graders today! Instead of regular classrooms, students stepped into fully transformed learning spaces as part of their fractions unit celebration.
Our 4th graders arrived to find their classroom turned into a donut shop, where math met real-world problem solving. This made the end of their fraction unit feel deliciously fun.
Meanwhile, 3rd grade walked into a full crime scene investigation! Students became math detectives, using skills to analyze clues, solve problems, and piece together the mystery. Every answer brought them closer to cracking the case.
Celebrating the end of a unit is always exciting when learning is hands-on, imaginative, and connected to an experience, students don’t just complete a unit — they remember it.
Shout out to Mrs. Crusha and Mrs. Wright for making these end of unit studies memorable and FUN!

Third grader, Luci Schrock, is working hard to finish her sketch for the annual art show.
When students are finished with their art work they also create an artist statement.This process helps them put their thinking into words — explaining their choices, ideas, and the meaning behind what they created.
Writing about art strengthens vocabulary, reflection skills, and the ability to communicate ideas clearly. It’s powerful to see students not only create… but explain the story behind their work!

This week we celebrate someone who makes a difference in ways that don’t always show up on a schedule, a gradebook, or a lesson plan — but are felt in the hearts of our students every single day.
Mrs. Holden, our school counselor is a safe place, a calm voice for our staff and students. She helps students navigate big feelings, tough friendships, hard days, and important decisions. She listens without judgment, encourages without limits, and reminds our kids they are seen, valued, and capable. She supports teachers, partners with parents, and helps create a school where every child can belong and grow.
The impact of a counselor isn’t always loud — but it is powerful and lasting.
Thank you, Mrs. Holden, for the care you give, the time you invest, and the countless lives you touch. Our school is better because of you.
