A special treat from our 5th grade/6th grade team — “What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?” 💭✨

Our students shared their dreams, goals, and future careers, and we loved hearing all of the amazing ideas! From teachers and veterinarians to farmers, athletes, scientists, and more, the future is bright at Dunham! ❤️🐉

We are so proud of our students for dreaming big and supporting one another as teammates along the way. “That’s My Teammate!”

Our 5th-grade students had an amazing opportunity to go back in time and spend the night on Angel Island at Camp Reynolds! As Union Army soldiers, students were tasked with protecting the island while experiencing what life may have been like during that time period.

They cooked stew, baked bread, learned flag signaling, practiced using a compass, and even completed a massive hike in the dark to Mt. Livermore. The hands-on learning, teamwork, and adventure made for an unforgettable experience.

We had an absolute blast and are so thankful for this incredible opportunity for our students to learn history by truly living it!

We are so proud of their hard work, creativity, and entrepreneurial spirit. Great job, 2nd graders! 🐉✨
