Road Trip Across America

We have been visiting states across the U.S.A in social studies class. Here are a few of the adventures we have experienced!

Our road trip to Wyoming led us to discover the works of artist Jackson Pollock. Click on the link to create your own pieces inspired by the work of this Wyoming born artist!

D.A.R.E.

We had our last D.A.R.E. class today. Through D.A.R.E., we learned about bullying, making positive decisions, being a leader, and many more life skills that we will use on a daily basis. Thank you, Officer Knies for teaching us!
