Our Jordan 5th graders had the exciting opportunity to attend BizTown, where they applied their skills in a real-life simulation by running their own town. Students took on roles in businesses such as Jersey Mike’s, the Quad-City Times, John Deere, and more.
Thank you to all of our amazing parent volunteers for helping make this experience possible!

Students in Mrs. Shrake's 3rd-grade class read the book Rosie Revere, Engineer! They wrote a paragraph on how we can be innovative at school. They also did a stem challenge: airplane action!
They created a paper airplane that could travel 12 feet before landing.

For Read Across America, Mrs. Saucedo’s 5th-grade class had the pleasure of welcoming Mrs. Lothridge's kindergarten class into their room. The kindergarteners brought their library books and proudly read them aloud to our fifth graders.
Our students loved listening to the stories and encouraging the younger readers. It was a wonderful opportunity for the kindergarteners to practice their reading skills and for our fifth graders to support and celebrate their hard work. Everyone left with smiles and a greater love for reading!

🎹🎶 We would like to shout out a very special thank you to Barron Ryan for sharing his musical gifts and inspiring words with us today!
👑💗 Daughters of the King 💗👑
Today we talked about something SO important…
Sometimes it’s easy to let Satan sneak into our thoughts and whisper lies that make us feel insecure, not good enough, or not special. 😔💭
BUT — when that happens, Jesus gives us His WORD 📖✨ to help us recognize those lies, reject them, and replace them with TRUTH. 🙌💛
Girls, I encourage you to dig into God’s Word so deeply that when you hear whispers like…
“You are nothing special” 🤍
You immediately know 🚫❌ —
That. Is. A. Lie.
Because you KNOW what GOD says about you. 👑✨
Fill your heart with truth.
Memorize His promises.
Stand confident in who He says you are. 💕
You are loved.
You are chosen.
You are His. 💖
Are you ready for the Storm? 🌪️🏒
