We are incredibly grateful for her time and dedication, both to our country and to inspiring our young learners. Thank you, SSG Estrada, for your service and for making this day memorable for our students! ❤️💙

📏 In Mrs. Churchwell’s kindergarten class, our mathematicians are hard at work practicing their measuring skills! This week, they teamed up in groups to sort objects based on whether they are “longer than” or “shorter than” another object. The excitement was contagious as they discussed, compared, and learned from one another—hands-on math at its best! 🌟 We’re so proud of these little mathematicians for thinking critically and working together. 💡
🌲 Forest Friday! 🌲 Our preschoolers had an adventure with Mrs. Sunneberg to Doane University's outdoor classroom! 🌳 Huge thanks to the Doane Education students who went above and beyond to make this such a memorable experience.
