National School Bus Safety Week October 17-21, 2022
While the school bus is the safest way to travel to school, children still need to be careful asthey get on and off the bus. Obstructed views and distracted drivers put kids at risk, which is why it’s important that parents teach them about ways to stay safe.
Red Ribbon Week is the largest drug-abuse prevention campaign in the United States. The national theme is Celebrate Life. Live Drug Free. Students are encouraged to participate in our themes to reinforce living drug free.
JA Biz town is a unique field trip for students because they get a chance to role play different roles in the business world. Thank you to all of the parents who volunteered to make this day possible.

The final project for students in robotics is not a test, but a presentation about their final build. Students demonstrate what their robot can do and answer questions. Students also discuss the engineering design process of think, do, test and how they use the 4 C's. The 4 C's are critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity. Both the engineering design process and the 4 C's help students be successful in robotics and in life.
