Stay tuned for pictures of our new roof coming soon! Please share the pictures with our little Wildcats. We love to share the exciting things happening at our school.

The annual 5th grade 🥚⬇️ was a hit! The object is for students to work in pairs to “spend” as little as possible on materials to protect their egg from the second story drop. The pair from each class whose egg survived the fall and “spent” the least amount of money on protective materials won.
Thank you to our PTO for the supplies and prizes! 💚
