Our Paris Elementary first graders had a wild time visiting Wendt’s Wildlife Adventure! 🐛 🐦 What a wonderful opportunity to explore, learn about wildlife, and make memories outside the classroom!

We love seeing our Little Hounds learning through hands-on experiences and discovering the amazing world around them! 🧡🖤

Fourth grade wrapped up their middle ages unit today with some guest visitors. Sir Kevin and Sir Timothy visited the school to share their knowledge and experience with modern day armored combat. Students loved getting to learn from real knights! Thank you Lexington Lykins!
