🌸✨ Creativity was in full bloom today! ✨🌸

Mrs. Creech’s Floral Design classes have been learning all about personal arrangements, and today they put those skills to the test! Students had the opportunity to let their creativity shine as they designed their very own boutonnières.

From classic styles to bold, unique designs, each creation showcased their hard work and individuality. We love seeing these students grow their skills and confidence!

This afternoon, our Elementary Student Lighthouse team, JH and HS Leadership team and National Honor Society students all worked together to help clean up FM 2260! Thanks to their hard work, we gathered over 15 bags of trash in less than a mile area. Huge thank you to Mrs. Clabaugh for driving the bus and for Mrs. Lake and Mrs. Daniels helping the students with the pickup!

It's great to see our students using the 7 habits to be great leaders at Gary Elementary, and our latest Habit Hero is Kamden! Kamden helped a friend gather their belongings while they were throwing away trash. By thinking win-win, he was able to get their tasks done quicker so they could get started on their next class!

Congratulations to our Elementary Students of the Month for February! We are proud of your hard work and leadership!
