Our LAE readers have been busy! These superstars have officially read and passed enough SSYRA books to cast their votes for their favorite titles. 🗳️📖
To celebrate their hard work and literary adventures, we took a break for a well-deserved ice cream party! There’s nothing sweeter than a good book—except maybe a scoop of vanilla with sprinkles.
We are so proud of our students' dedication to reading. Keep turning those pages, LAE! Give this post a ❤️ if you love a good book!

Our Battle of the Books team has been training for months—devouring chapters, memorizing details, and bonding over some incredible stories. All their hard work finally paid off at our LAE Battle!
We are beyond proud of these young readers for their teamwork, sportsmanship, and honestly their impressive ability to remember the most obscure details. Whether they took home the trophy or just a few more favorite book titles, it was a total win for literacy.
A huge thank you to our dedicated student readers for their passion, the parents for their support, and our amazing team sponsor Mrs. Whitley!

Our Kindergarteners had the best "stay-cation" field trip right here on campus! They spent the morning diving into the world of agriculture and science with the GABIE Bus, and our little explorers stayed busy from start to finish.
Here’s a look at their adventure:
The GABIE Bus: They stepped inside a classroom on wheels to learn all about where our food comes from! 🍎
Pollination Power: Did you know bees use static electricity to collect pollen? They used some "science magic" to see exactly how those fuzzy bees get the job done. 🐝
Scavenger Hunt: Our students put on their detective hats to find hidden treasures around the bus and gardens. 🔍
Germ Squashing: They learned the "gross" truth about how quickly germs spread and practiced their superstar hand-washing skills! 🧼
It was a day full of "Aha!" moments and big smiles. A huge thank you to the GABIE team for bringing the farm (and the science) to LAE!

Just a friendly reminder that Daylight Saving Time begins this weekend! Most people find it easiest to set their clocks ahead one hour on Saturday night before heading to bed—that way, you’re all set for Sunday morning! 🛌✨
While we all adjust to losing that hour of sleep, we’re definitely looking forward to those longer, sunnier afternoons for our students' after-school sports and activities! ☀️
We can’t wait to see all our students arriving safely and right on time this Monday morning to kick off another great week of learning. 🎒✨

🕵️♂️ Case File: The Seusstastic Mystery
Our 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade RAMS have officially traded their bookmarks for magnifying glasses! The media center has been left in a bit of a tumble, and it looks like some mischievous characters from the world of Dr. Seuss are to blame!
From the Cat in the Hat’s suspicious whiskers to the Grinch’s sneaky footprints, our student detectives are hard at work:
Analyzing Clues: Scouring the stacks for evidence.
Gathering Facts: Documenting the "who, what, and where" of the mess.
Cracking the Case: Using their best deductive reasoning to find the prime suspect!
It’s been a Seusstastic mystery filled with critical thinking, teamwork, and of course a little bit of chaos. 🔍📚

Our amazing fifth graders are diving deep into the human body as they explore the structure and function of major organs. Students became young scientists by tracing the human body, carefully locating where each organ belongs, and matching every organ to its important job in keeping us alive and healthy.
From the brain controlling the body, to the lungs helping us breathe, to the heart pumping blood, students are building a strong understanding of how all body systems work together. Through hands-on investigation, discussion, and critical thinking, learning truly came to life today!
Future leaders in the making! 👩⚕️👨⚕️🧠💙

Clay County District Schools is considering three options for school start times for the 2026-2027 school year, and your feedback is essential to this decision.
In 2025, Florida law (SB 296) granted our School Board the flexibility to decide the best bell times for our community. We are currently weighing three possibilities:
Option A: Keep bell times exactly as they are now.
Option B: Elementary schools start first (7:20 AM), High Schools start last (9:40 AM).
Option C: Swap Elementary and Senior High times (High School starts at 8:30 AM).
Each option has different impacts on transportation costs, extracurriculars, and student sleep patterns. We want to know what works best for your family!
