Preparing for an outdoor adventure! Our fifth grade STEM students enjoyed designing hiking backpacks to fit all of their supplies. They first sewed models of their designs together within groups.
Congratulations to our 8th grade artists of the week!
Tori D., Jonah K., Bryson S. and Hannah H. impressed us with their incredible grid drawings! For this project, students selected a reference image of their choice, created a 1x1 grid on it, and then used the grid drawing method to enlarge their image to four times the original size. By carefully following each square, they developed strong observation skills.

We’re proud to feature 7th grade artists with their stunning chalk pastel landscapes! Inspired by the work of Claude Monet, students explored color blending, light, and atmosphere to create Impressionist-style scenes. Each piece began with a bold black glue outline to define key shapes, then was brought to life with layers of soft, vibrant chalk pastels.
Congratulations to B, Orin F, Tiara J and Aubree S for being named artists of the week!

It’s “o-fish-al,” our first grade students love STEM class! They recently made fishing poles using sticks and string, and then made a game out of shaping their hooks to catch various types of fish on the floor.

Our third graders have been busy in STEAM class! Groups of students created games using mainly supplies from nature to keep everyone entertained. It was exciting to see the variety of games created using different materials.
Our amazing 4th graders just wrapped up reading Roald Dahl's "The BFG"! To make the story come alive, we engaged in a fun mental yoga activity where the students created a giant fork, just like the one in the book. Since everything in the giant's world needed to be multiplied by four, the students took on the challenge of adjusting their measurements accordingly.
To bring their creations to life, they used their giant forks to pick up various items around the classroom. It was a tough project for many, but we saw some incredible teamwork and creativity on display!
