What happens when first-grade classroom pet, Larry, makes a daring escape? You’ll have to watch to find out.
(This adventurous crayfish is part of a first-grade science unit exploring plant and animal survival—but last week, Larry gave students and staff an unexpected real-life lesson in our core values--self-determination & teamwork!)
Thankfully, this little explorer was safely recovered (from a surprising location).

Our Black History Month Celebration was everything we hoped it would be - families, students, staff, and community members filled the gym to connect, celebrate, and honor Black history together.
The afternoon was filled with student voice and creativity - uplifting musical performances from our elementary students and a powerful show from our dance team that prompted moments of joy and reflection. And the Fashion Show? Absolutely incredible. Our scholars modeled clothes they designed and sewed from upcycled fabrics inspired by African roots, historical eras, and HBCU homecoming styles!
The food was delicious, the energy was unmatched, and the pride in the room was palpable.
Thank you to our staff, students, families, and community vendors who make this event so special!
