Mrs. Miller’s first-grade class earned a special treat for raising the most money among the first-grade classes in our Paw Print Fundraiser! To celebrate their hard work, they enjoyed a fun walk to Mama B’s for some delicious ice cream!
A big thank-you to Mama B’s for welcoming our students and helping make their celebration extra special!
And to our wonderful community, thank you for your generosity and for always showing our Bulldogs so much love and support.

To end a fun unit about bats, Miss Curran’s second grade class did an echolocation lab! Students used cardboard tubes and an aluminum baking pan to recreate the effect of echolocation. Students came up with a hypothesis of what they thought would happen, constructed the set up, and tested out their creation! Students were to whisper a compliment into the tube, and the sound of their voice traveled through and bounced off the baking pan to mimic an echo. They thought it was super cool to be “batty” for a little while! 🦇
