We want to express our HUGE appreciation to all the wonderful parents and family members who volunteered their time to make our Discovery Field Day such a tremendous success! Your enthusiasm, energy, and support created an unforgettable day of fun and friendly competition for our students.
The energy was electric during our 5th grade Tug-of-War finals yesterday! Students from Ms. LeCluyse's and Mrs. McElroy's classes lined up on opposite sides of the rope for an epic contest of strength and strategy. After a thrilling back-and-forth battle that had everyone cheering, Mrs. McElroy's class pulled through to claim the championship title!

The competition was fierce and the determination was real at our 6th grade Tug-of-War Championship! Ms. Kinder's class and Mrs. Johnston's class faced off in an incredible display of teamwork and strength. Mrs. Johnston's class pulled through for the WIN! 🎉
