August Bucket Fillers! 💛🪣

Southwest Elementary is starting the school year with lots of kindness! 🌟

We’re celebrating our August Bucket Fillers who have been caught being kind, helpful, encouraging, and thoughtful. These students are showing us that even the smallest acts of kindness can make a big difference! 🥰

Planning ahead pays off! 📅

Did you know our school calendar includes built-in days off throughout the year? Those days are a great opportunity to schedule appointments, checkups, and even quick family getaways without your child missing valuable classroom time.

A little scheduling now can make a big difference because every day in class helps us build champions.

Their first paint party was a huge success, bringing people together for a day filled with creativity, laughter, art, and community. It was so great to see everyone letting their imaginations shine and enjoying time together.

Here’s to many more creative moments and community events! 🎨✨
