National School Psychology Week is a great reminder that students and families do not have to navigate challenges alone! School psychologists can provide support for concerns related to mental health, behavior, and academic success.
Whether a challenge is big or small, reaching out for guidance can be an important first step.

🌱🧬 Life Science Fun!
Our Life Science students got hands-on with plant cells by creating their very own plant cell models using Play-Doh! 🎨
As they built their models, students reviewed the different parts of a plant cell and discussed the important job each organelle does to keep the cell functioning.
From the cell wall to the nucleus, students brought science to life in a colorful and creative way! 🌿
Learning science is even more fun when you can get your hands on it! 💚
