In A Wrinkle in Time, Chapter 6 focuses on how staying hopeful and thinking creatively can help when situations feel difficult. Our students explored this idea by designing inventions meant to encourage positivity, support, and clear thinking during hard moments.
Through this experience, students practiced problem-solving, empathy, and perseverance while connecting literature to real-world thinking. Each invention represents a thoughtful response to challenge and a belief in moving forward with purpose.
So proud of the care, effort, and insight these students showed as they combined reading, creativity, and design.

Our LAE yearbook is more than just a book—it’s a collection of all the smiles, friendships, and special moments from this school year. Don't let these memories fade away! The current early-bird pricing ends on February 14th. Don't wait until they're all gone—order yours now!

As our students return to class tomorrow morning after Winter Break, it’s the perfect time for a quick refresher on getting to school safely. Whether you walk, ride, or drive, we all play a part in keeping our school community safe.
Check out these tips to help us all arrive safe:
🚶 WALK SAFE! - Heads Up, Phone Down! Use sidewalks and cross only at corners and crosswalks. Look LEFT-RIGHT-LEFT before crossing. Be seen!
🚲 RIDE SAFE! (Bikes, E-Bikes, & E-Scooters) - Helmet On: It’s the LAW for riders under 16. Obey all stop signs and traffic lights. Ride with traffic and stay bright! Yield to walkers on the sidewalk.
⚡ E-Riders: You are fast and quiet. Drivers don't always expect you—be extra alert and slow down at intersections!
🚌 BUS SAFE! - Wait in a safe place well away from the road. Board or cross ONLY when the driver gives you the "OK" signal. Stay seated and keep the aisle clear.
Drivers: Please review the "School Bus Safety Rules" graphic below so you know exactly when you MUST stop! 🛑
🚗 DRIVE SAFE! - Slow down, especially in school zones. Look twice for kids at every intersection, driveway, and crosswalk. Give bikes 3 feet! Put the phone away and focus on the road.
Let's work together to make the first day back a safe one. Share this post with your students and neighbors to help spread the word!
We can't wait to see you tomorrow! ✨
