Kindergarten having fun, being creative and loving art class!!

In PE, our 3rd grade students are working on all things basketball 🏀 while getting a great workout in the process. They are practicing multi-step directions, strengthening their hand-eye coordination, building teamwork skills, and most importantly, having FUN while staying active! 💪 In Music, students were engaged in interactive games while learning their music notes 🎶. What a fun and meaningful way to build foundational music skills! It’s always exciting to see learning come alive through movement, rhythm, and play.

One of the best traditions of FFA Week — Drive Your Tractor to School Day. Proud of our students for celebrating agriculture and the strong farming roots that make our community what it is. Great to see the parking lot filled with hard work, responsibility, and Tiger pride! #IBTigerPride
