Last week was a busy one! We enjoyed spoiling our teachers and staff for Educator Appreciation week. Our 5th graders worked hard to create their egg drop containers, as well as some roller coaster tracks. 3rd graders escaped from some challenging escape rooms. Mrs. Tipton's tech classes continued working on their floats. All grade levels enjoyed their field days, and we ended the week with an awesome art show! I'm sure there is plenty more that I missed, but these are some of the highlights.
