Our 3rd graders sang us through the biomes this Friday.  Not only were the songs  fun, but they were also informational! Way to go, 3rd grade!  IMG_9986

Check out our students who were chosen to receive bikes as part of 50 Bikes for 50 Kids. These students were nominated for the great things they are doing in the community and in school. They were able to build their new bikes with sponsoring members in the community. Great job, Isabella and Joseph! Screen Shot 2016-01-22 at 1.52.55 PM
