Guess what Day 67 looked like in first grade? 🎈 Our fabulous 1st graders graphed 67 stickers, hunted down 67 tricky words, and even wrote about what they'd look like at 67 — then students and staff wrapped up the day in smiles with a Balloons Over Broadway parade! 🎉 Huge thanks to our dedicated 1st grade teachers & staff for making learning so interactive and fun. #BetheLight #DifferenceMakers

Our kindergarten classes spent a heartwarming afternoon reenacting the First Thanksgiving — students and staff sat together, learned about history, and shared a delicious snack as a community. It was a beautiful chance for hands-on learning and teamwork. What family traditions do you celebrate this season? 🧡🍁🍽️

Curious how force & motion comes to life in 3rd grade? Ask an egg! 🥚 ➡️🏫 Today our students utilized their creatively designed devices to protect eggs dropped from the second floor to the first. Both students & staff were actively engaged to see if their design would keep their eggs safe. 🥚 It was a hands-on science win—full of teamwork, problem-solving, and lots of cheers for their classmates & friends. #BetheLight #DifferenceMakers
