Our PE students got to enjoy a fresh (and very tasty!) treat last week—homemade salsa made from vegetables grown in our school garden! 🌱🍅 Even though most of the growing happened over the summer, it was a great way for students to see where fresh ingredients come from and to try something new. And the verdict? Most of them absolutely loved it! Nothing better than fresh flavors, healthy food and happy students! 😄

🚍💙 Happy School Bus Driver Appreciation Day! 💙🚍 Today we celebrate our incredible school bus drivers and transportation director who safely transport our students to and from school each day. Rain or shine, early mornings and long afternoons—they show up with a smile, a wave, and a commitment to keeping our kids safe. Our bus drivers are often the first and last school connection our students have each day, and they make a lasting impact through their kindness, patience, and dedication. Thank you for going the extra mile for our students and families—we appreciate you more than words can say! 💙👏 #BusDriverAppreciationDay #ThankYouDrivers #WeAppreciateYou

Our 1st and 2nd grade students had an incredible time participating in a Bike & Pedestrian Safety Course! 🚲 A huge thank you to Megan Youell with Safe Kids Oklahoma and Bethany Children’s Health Center for providing such an engaging and informative experience for our students. They did a fantastic job making sure our kids walked away with the knowledge and confidence to stay safe whether they’re on wheels or on foot. We’d also like to give a big shoutout to the high school leadership students who volunteered their time to help teach and guide our younger students—they were absolutely amazing role models! From start to finish, our students were fully engaged and learned so many important safety skills that will stick with them well beyond the day. We are so grateful for the time, effort, and care that went into making this event such a success!

Water safety is key to preventing accidents and ensuring fun at pools, lakes, and beaches! 🌊 Always supervise children and make sure they wear life jackets when needed. Be aware of swimming conditions and never swim alone. Knowing basic rescue techniques can also help keep everyone safe. Enjoy the water responsibly! #WaterSafety

Our second graders had such a fun and creative experience teaming up with Mr. Corea’s art class to make pottery! 🏺 They loved getting their hands a little messy while learning new techniques and expressing their creativity. It was so special to see their excitement as their ideas came to life! A big thank you to Mr. Corea for sharing his time and talent with our students—what a memorable experience for everyone involved!🐉❤️🤍
