Fifth grade hosted their first (hopefully of many)🌭Fifth-Grade Family Cookout🌭!
We know 💜it takes a village💜 for each and every student to succeed. We also know that one of the easiest ways to build community is through shared meals!
A huge thanks to the Heaton family for bringing in Blue J's to make whipping up hot dogs fast and easy! And thank you to our fifth-grade families for providing all the "fixins" for a proper potluck!
There's nothing quite like being a 🐬Dolphin🐬!

Can you tell that our students are🏆CHAMPIONS🏆of change?
This month's unified challenge through Special Olympics was to spell "CHAMPION" with student bodies (We just added the "s" for fun!🙃)!
We know inclusion sometimes requires changes - in physical things like routines and in mental things like mindsets - but💜all of our students💜are paving the way for that change each and every day through inclusion efforts!

After all, the🦸hero archetype🦸♀️is, in large part, defined by acting as a force for the greater good, and what is more characteristic of our🐬Dolphin🐬family than that?

While the rest of us have been settling into our new classroom families, our✨K-Start cuties✨have been rotating between teachers and providing informal data to help our kindergarten teachers and our administrators make the most equitable and balanced classes they can!
Our🐬kindergarten Dolphins🐬had their teacher reveal last night, and today they started their year with their official "team".
We know how foundational early childhood education is, and we want all of our students to hit the ground running! K-Start has been an incredible tool for our Dolphins, and we know it's only as successful as it is because we've got🍎incredible teachers🍎behind it!
❤️💙💜💛
