Learning fire safety is all about hands-on practice! Our students had a blast practicing key emergency moves today. A big thank you to the Angleton Fire Department for stopping by—our Pre-K, Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd graders all loved visiting the fire truck and learning how to stay safe!

Big shout-out to one of our amazing 5th graders! Taking the initiative to clean up the cafeteria—even when it wasn't his own mess—shows true leadership and respect for our school family. It’s small acts of kindness like this that make our school such a special place to learn and grow every day!

The Candy Race is heating up!

A huge shoutout to our 2nd grade for currently taking the lead in the Candy Race! Can they hold onto first place, or will another grade swoop in for the win? Remember, the winning grade gets an epic ice cream party!

Before the fall break our Pre-K students finished up their box unit in the most creative way possible!

We love seeing their big smiles and incredible imaginations come to life!

As we gear up for our Indoor Trunk or Treat, we’re calling on our amazing families to help us stock up on treats. Candy drop-offs are open Oct 5th–27th right on the stage.
