Wild about being on time for school! We enjoyed a day of animals and animal prints! Even small tardies add up! A few minutes late each morning can equal hours of lost reading, math, and learning time. Please make sure your student is here by 7:50am, daily. #AttendanceAwareness

Cozy and committed! Our students showed up in their comfiest pajamas today to celebrate National Attendance Awareness Week—because great attendance never sleeps! 🌙✨ #AttendanceMatters #AttendanceAwarenessWeek Every day matters! Even missing 2 days a month adds up to nearly a month of learning lost by the end of the year. Wake up & come to school! We ❤️ having our Cougars here daily!

Celebrate National Attendance Awareness Week with us—today we wore our favorite sports shirt or jersey and showed our team spirit while staying in school! 🏈 ⚽️ 🥅 🎾 Good attendance doesn’t happen alone. It’s a team effort between home and school to set students up for success. We appreciate our families working with us to get students to school by 7:50am daily!

➕➖ Marshmallow Math Fun! ➖➕ Our kindergarteners in Mrs. Busby’s class had a sweet time learning about one more and one less today! 🍬✨ Using marshmallows and task cards, students worked together in groups to practice building numbers, finding one more, and one less. 🧮 Not only did they strengthen their math skills, but they also practiced teamwork and problem-solving while having a blast! 🙌💡 Way to go, Mrs. Busby’s Kinder mathematicians—you’re proving learning can be both tasty and smart! 😋📚 #KindergartenMath #OneMoreOneLess #HandsOnLearning #TeamworkInAction

🍂🍁 Leaf Detectives at Work! 🍁🍂 Our curious first graders had so much fun exploring the outdoors as the leaves began to fall. 🌳✨ They collected leaves and then worked together to sort them by size and shape—noticing all the little details that make each leaf unique. 🔍🍃 Hands-on learning like this helps students practice observation, classification, and critical thinking skills… all while enjoying the beauty of fall! 🍂💛 We are so proud of their excitement and teamwork! 🌟 #FirstGradeExplorers #HandsOnLearning #FallFun #STEMInAction

📚✨ Goal-Getters in Action! ✨📚 Our amazing first graders in Ms. Blanca’s class were busy using their data binders to track progress and set new goals. 🙌 These students are learning the power of responsibility and focus at such a young age—talk about being goal driven! 💪 It’s so inspiring to see them take ownership of their learning, celebrate growth, and push themselves to reach new milestones. 🌟 👏 Way to go, Blanca’s class—you’re showing what hard work, perseverance, and determination look like every day! #GoalDriven #DataBinders #FirstGradeLeaders #FutureReady

Yeehaw! 🤠 For Rootin’ Tootin’ Tuesday, we’re tipping our hats to Ms. Thompson and Ms. Erika—2 of our amazing deaf and hard of hearing staff who show there’s nothing they *can’t* wrangle when it comes to supporting students. 🌟✨ #RootinTootinTuesday
