Our courtyard garden got some extra love today thanks to a great group of student volunteers led by Mr. Bathum, our incredible PE teacher. 🌱

The kids had a blast, and it was really special to see them taking ownership and caring for our school. You could feel the pride and joy out there.

Another big thank you to Mr. Bathum for the way he shows up for kids every single day. He goes above and beyond, builds strong relationships, and is such a positive role model for our students.

We are truly lucky to have him at Black Diamond Elementary! 🙌 💛

Our students went ga-ga for Gaga Ball! 🤪

Thank you to our PTO for making it happen, and a big shoutout to Mr. Bathum (Our phenomenal PE teacher) for teaching every class how to play. It was awesome to see students working together and showing great sportsmanship. We are so excited to have another fun activity for our students to participate in during recess!

What a beautiful day to bring out the baseball mitts and play catch! ☀️⚾ Lots of fun, and for some of our younger students, it was their very first time trying it. Moments like these build confidence, spark joy, and create lasting memories.
