Join us for Lunch! December 10,2025
School events for the upcoming week... Although we strive to include all events for the week, please refer to the campus event calendar for any updates.
Our students took aim at learning and laughter today with a festive twist on classroom engagement! With a whole lot of teamwork, they went “turkey hunting” in the hallway—tracking down colorful paper turkeys.
This hands-on activity blended movement, focus, and fun across subjects, sparking smiles and collaboration in every corner. From solving math problems, to finding evidence in passages to answer reading questions, studying and reviewing the Alamo, and digging into the science of energy. Our mixed curriculum came to life in the most gobble-tastic way!
A huge shoutout to HOSA and to Coach Keeton and her 7A basketball team for joining the kids for lunch. We appreciate you all!
