Students in Ms. Cabalquinto's class and Ms. Hanson's class made pet rocks with student leaders. In the coming weeks, they will be making habitats for their pets while talking about basic needs and adaptations. We love their designs!





Congratulations to our latest AVID Warriors, Coach Beerbower and Principal Eiserman! They completed the twelve-hour AVID strategies training. AVID is a 45-year-old national program that includes an elective class, where the goal is to help students achieve greater success in both the classroom and in their future.
