🎩📚 Hats Off to Reading! 📚🎩

We’re kicking off Read Across America Week in style today! Our readers topped off the celebration by wearing their favorite hats as we tip our caps to the power of books.

From silly to sporty to simply spectacular, our hats showed that reading is always in fashion! 👒🧢🎓

Here’s to turning pages, exploring new worlds, and celebrating the joy of stories all week long.

Teamwork in action at LeForce Gym! 🌊🪷

Our students took on the “Cross the River” challenge using their lily pads to make it safely across without falling in! The catch? They had to work together, communicate, and plan each step as a team. 💬🤝

From problem-solving to encouraging one another, this fun and active game was all about cooperation, strategy, and trust. And yes — there were lots of laughs along the way! 😄

We love seeing our students build strong bodies and strong teamwork skills. Way to go, everyone! 💪✨ #PhysEdFun #TeamworkInAction #LearningThroughPlay

Ahoy, mateys! 🏴‍☠️

Our 1st graders set sail on a swashbuckling treasure hunt in search of “Aaargh!” words! From farm to star to shark, these pirates followed their treasure map and discovered that learning can be an adventure! 🗺️✨

With pirate hats on and eye patches ready, they hunted for words with the /ar/ sound and proved they’re not here to be average… they’re here to be AWESOME! 💛📚

🎭💜💛💚 Laissez les bons temps rouler! 💚💛💜🎭
Today Edison turned into a mini New Orleans as we celebrated Mardi Gras in the most festive way! 🎉
Our amazing teachers went all out — beads, boas, masks, and big smiles everywhere you looked! The teacher’s lounge was decked out in purple, green, and gold, and the halls felt like a parade route straight from Mardi Gras. ✨🎷
And let’s talk about the SWEETEST part… 🍩
We enjoyed delicious king cake donuts — complete with the tiny king baby! 👑
From festive decor to lots of laughter, it was a day full of fun, community, and just a sprinkle of Louisiana magic. 💫
Big thank you to our teachers for making learning (and celebrating!) so memorable. 💜

💕🍫 A Sweet Surprise for Our Sweetest Staff! 🍓🍰

Today, our amazing teachers and staff were treated to something extra special to make their Valentine’s Day a little sweeter — a delicious chocolate fountain filled with all the goodies! 🍫✨

Fresh fruit, fluffy marshmallows, pound cake, and crunchy pretzels were all ready for dipping and enjoying. 🍓🍌🍰🥨 It was a small token of appreciation for the BIG love, dedication, and heart our teachers pour into their classrooms every single day. ❤️

We are so grateful for everything they do to support, inspire, and care for our students. We hope this sweet treat reminded them just how much they are appreciated!
