Congratulations to our Speech Meet winners!

Luther Glen & Riley Farms Field Trip
The 5th and 6th grade class took a field trip to Luther GLen and Riley's Farm last week. The students spent Sunday night at Luther Glen where they gathered fresh eggs, took care of farm animals, and played games. On Monday, they went to Riley's Farm to learn about and participate in a recreation of the 1775 Battle of St. George's Tavern. The kids shared so many laughs while learning outside of the classroom! They are a wonderful group of kids!
Preschool Art Show & Concert
The preschool students had their Earth Day Art Show and Concert last Friday. Founder's Hall was filled with amazing artwork including paintings, prints, photography, mixed media, collage, and drawings. We are very proud of our preschool artists!

Drama Company
The Drama Company had a super funny performance of
"Pigs vs. Wolves - A Fairy Tale Election Drama" last week.
The students gave an outstanding performance! A huge thank you to Mrs. VanMeeteren for putting on this wonderful production!
