๐ถ In Music, we are reviewing what weโve learned through small group stations (centers)! ๐ผ
In these pictures, you can see students working both independently and collaboratively as they read iconic and standard notationโfiguring out the correct rhythm ๐ฅ and pitch ๐ต to play their songs accurately.
Students are working together ๐ค and pushing themselves to go above and beyond their current skills! โญ๏ธ๐

Rain or shine, our staff shows up for our students ๐งกโ
This morning, Officer Long grabbed an umbrella to help keep our kiddos dry as they arrived at school. It may seem like a small gesture, but itโs moments like these that make a big difference.
Itโs the little things that truly matterโand itโs exactly why Reno is the best.

Report cards went home yesterday! Please review, sign, snap a picture for your records and return to school!
As we head into the final stretch of the school year, weโve seen an increase in visits to the nurseโs office for students needing a change of clothes. At this time, our supply of extra clothing is running low.
We kindly ask that you send your child to school with a change of clothes to keep in their backpack. Accidents, spills, and even fun outdoor activities can happen at any grade level!
With Field Day and end-of-year events coming up, this is a great time to plan ahead so your child can stay comfortable and ready to learn (and play!) throughout the day.
Thank you for your support in helping us keep students safe, comfortable, and confident!
๐ฃโจ Our first grade scientists have been hard at work learning all about animal life cycles! โจ๐ฃ
Over the past few weeks, students have been observing chicken eggs in an incubator, watching closely as they developed over 21 days. The excitement peaked on Wednesday when the chicks began to hatchโright before their eyes! ๐ฅ๐
Students were able to witness the entire hatching process throughout the day, and after the chicks arrived, they even got the opportunity to gently hold them. Talk about a hands-on learning experience theyโll never forget! ๐ซถ๐ค
We love bringing science to life and creating meaningful moments like these in first grade! ๐ฑ๐ Great things are happening at Reno Elementary! #WeareReno #PorcupineFamily

โ๏ธ 2nd Grade Spotlight: Writing to the Future! โณ
Our 2nd graders are becoming chronological thinkers as they explore the concepts of past, present, and future! This week, students took their learning a step further by writing letters to future 2nd graders. ๐
In their letters, students shared advice, experiences, and what theyโve learned throughout the year. This activity helped them understand how time connects events and how their present experiences can impact the future.
By combining writing with social studies concepts like timelines and sequencing, students are strengthening both their communication skills and their understanding of how events happen over time.
We are so proud of the thoughtful ideas and creativity our students are showing as they learn to reflect on the past, live in the present, and look ahead to the future! ๐ Great things are happening at Reno Elementary!

๐๐ Itโs Assistant Principal Appreciation Week, and there is truly NO BETTER Assistant Principal than Mr. Moody! ๐๐
Mr. Moody goes above and beyond every single day for both our students and staff. ๐งก He builds strong relationships, supports everyone with a smile, and brings a positive energy that makes our school a better place. ๐
Our students absolutely love himโwhether heโs encouraging them, celebrating their successes, or just making them laugh along the way! ๐๐ He has a special way of making every student feel seen, valued, and excited to be at school.
For our staff, Mr. Moody is always thereโsupportive, dependable, and ready to jump in wherever needed. ๐ช๐ He doesnโt just assist in leading the schoolโฆ he makes everything FUN! ๐
๐งก This photo (of Mr. Moody on the motorcycle) was taken circa 2020 when COVID hit and we were all sent home. Mrs. Showers, Mr. Moody, and many of our staff hit the road and made a parade through neighborhoods just to see our students because we missed them so much during the school closure. ๐๐ Itโs stories like these that make Reno such a special place! ๐งก
Reno Elementary is so lucky to have such a dedicated, caring, and all-around amazing assistant principal! ๐งก๐
Thank you, Mr. Moody, for everything you do! ๐๐ #AssistantPrincipalAppreciationWeek #WeareReno
