Today a Reader, Tomorrow a Leader
On March 16th-19th, our Beta students took a trip to Washington, DC. They were able to make connections to our social studies standards and see the actual documents we analyze in class. They explored monuments, museums, theatres, and plantations during their trip. There was even word of them visiting the Spy Museum, but one of the rules is deny everything so we don't know for sure 🤫😉 Thank you to WorldStrides and our Beta Sponsors for providing this educational trip for our 5th graders!
Our 5th graders looked towards the sky on Tuesday! They were challenged to find the 5 planets that were aligned. Students used the phenomenon and previous observations of the night sky to provide empirical evidence that the planets orbit the sun just like Galileo did with his telescope.

Read Across America Day was a HIT!!
Our 5th graders learned about different careers last Friday! Students were able to travel to four different rooms to hear from guest speakers. Afterwards, they headed to the bus portal to learn all about the various positions in the police department and fire department. We are so thankful for our teachers who planned this amazing experience for our students!
Thank you to our community for volunteering their time and expertise to show our wildcats all the possibilities they have in their futures.
Our 3rd graders had a great time celebrating Louisiana before Mardi Gras. The participated in a parade, sampling different foods, and meeting some animals. We are so proud of the hard work that our teachers put into making this day special for our wildcats.

Students were able to take orders, deliver the orders and set up a self-serve station in their main lounge.
