We had our annual 5th Grade Wax Museum today, and it was a huge success! Parents, grandparents, staff, and students all participated in this special event as our 5th graders brought famous historical figures to life. Students worked hard researching their person, preparing speeches, and creating costumes and displays that truly impressed everyone. We are so proud of the hard work, confidence, and presentation skills our students demonstrated today. Thank you to all of the families and staff members who came out to support our students and help make the event such a great experience!










During the latest CAT session, Mrs. Ogg hosted a sewing club where 7th-12th grade students learned how to create projects, and made some pretty awesome things!
