We are in the home stretch of Charlotte's Web. What is your favorite part so far? Mine is seeing the friendship between Wilbur and Charlotte. They are completely different, and yet they don't let their differences keep them from becoming best friends.

Let's keep things going with Chapter 18. https://vimeo.com/1163365840/da84a1898c?fl=pl&fe=sh

🎵Music isn't just a subject—it’s a universal language that builds community, boosts brainpower, and gives our students a voice.

From the first squeaky notes in elementary recorder class to the breathtaking performances of our high school ensembles, music is the heartbeat of our hallways. This month, we celebrate the dedicated educators who inspire our students and the young musicians who fill our schools with harmony!

Today's reading is Chapter 14: Dr. Dorian. Can you guess who that might be or what role he might play in the story? Let's keep reading to find out.

Recently in Ms.Volos 5th grade science, students investigated physical and chemical weathering using sugar cubes! 🧊🌎
Students observed how forces like wind and water can physically break down rocks, while also seeing how substances like water can cause chemical changes that weaken them over time. Science is always sweeter when it’s hands-on! 🌎🔬

Chapter 12: The Meeting - After reading this chapter, did you come up with any words of your own that Charlotte should use?

March is Women’s History Month! Behind every great student is a village—and a huge part of ours is powered by incredible women! Let's celebrate the pioneers who paved the way for our students today.

From the laboratory to the library, women have consistently broken barriers and redefined what’s possible. Our goal is to ensure every girl in our hallways sees herself in the stories we teach and the leaders we celebrate.
