✨Kindergarten Glow Day! ✨

Our kindergarten students lit up the school during Glow Day! From glowing activities and bright smiles to hands-on learning fun, the day was filled with excitement and unforgettable memories.

We are so proud of how much our kindergarteners have learned and grown this year. Their curiosity, creativity, and enthusiasm truly shine bright every day!

3rd Grade Lemonade Wars 🍋

Our 3rd graders read and studied basic economics with the novel The Lemonade War (Book 1 of the series!). Student groups created lemonade stand “businesses” and used value added items to advertise and “sell” lemonade to our school. The lemonade wars winner was the Party People stand with $50 in earnings! 3rd grade sold a total of 282 cups of lemonade, used a variety of value added ideas, and got a taste of what it takes to run a business.

Our 8th grade students took learning beyond the classroom during a macroinvertebrate bioindicator lab at the Watauga River! Students worked alongside Mr. Shack and Ms. Lyons to study aquatic organisms and use them as indicators to help determine the river’s water quality.

One of the many perks of our location in Valle is having the Watauga River right in our backyard. Having access to such an incredible natural resource gives our students unique hands-on learning opportunities and makes our mountain setting an even greater place to learn and grow!
