Tomorrow, Thursday, February 19, 2026, we will be hosting Parent-Teacher Conferences from 4:30 PM to 7:00 PM.
This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with your child's teacher, discuss their progress, and partner for a successful second semester.
We look forward to seeing you there!

We switched from Wednesday to Friday for Valentine’s Day Trivia, and our Falcons rose to the occasion! 🧠🦅
Congrats to our SOAR slip winners!

To make it even more challenging, students created and acted out full scenes — not just single objects. It’s amazing to see communication, problem-solving, and leadership skills come to life in such a positive way!

Yesterday was Dynamic Duos Day, and our halls were filled with amazing pairs and lots of smiles. Thank you to everyone who participated and brought the spirit! 💕
#FalconsFlyFar #TalonsUp






With the home staged to reflect life in the 1940s & 50s, students explored, observed, and used rich sensory details to craft creative pieces! 📚✨ The experience wrapped up with a guided tour of this incredible space.
History + creativity = powerful learning! 🎉
