Reminder

Behind the uniform, our School Resource Officers are a vital part of the daily heartbeat of our schools. 💙

On this National School Resource Officer Appreciation Day, we aren’t just celebrating safety—we’re celebrating the mentors who guide our students, the friendly faces who greet them every morning, and the leaders who aren't afraid to get a little chalk on their hands decorating the sidewalks.

From jumping into selfies to providing a listening ear, our SROs build bridges of trust and friendship across OneClay.

Thank you for your dedication, your heart, and your service to our school community!

History came to life in the 3rd grade today! 🇺🇸✨

Our students blew us away with their President Reports, showcasing weeks of hard work, research, and presentation practice. From George Washington to Eleanor Roosevelt, each student stepped into the shoes (and costumes!) of a US President or First Lady to share their legacy with the class.

We are so proud of these young historians and the creativity they brought to the "Oval Office" today!
