Our 3-5 classes recently read I Survived the Titanic, which inspired us to build our very own boats! A special thanks to Mr. Dyer for providing the foam that sparked our creativity this week.





We got very cold and frosty today in Mill A, which made for a chilly morning recess for all.
Parents, it might be a good time to tuck a pair of gloves and a hat in your child's backpack. We want everyone to be safe and warm!


We are so fortunate that our campus has a hiking path in our "Little Forest". Our teachers frequently take their students for walks in there.



Mrs. Duffus teaching the K-2 students about the spine in PE class today. They learned about the different spinal segments and made a spine using fruit loops, pasta and pipe cleaners.


We have been enjoying the sunshine at recess, but the rain is coming. Parents and guardians, please make sure your student is dressed for the weather.
