Yesterday, while our buildings were closed to students for election day, our teachers participated in professional development. Kinder Elementary School held a "Cost of Poverty" experience where teachers simulated the difficulties of running a household for a month while living in poverty. It was a great day of learning and growing together. Our students also enjoyed our first personalized learning day to explore different areas of interest that help develop the whole child.

Personalized Learning Day Information
DID YOU KNOW? Being out of school just 2 days per month adds up to 18 days; that's a full month of learning missed by the end of the year. It’s easy to underestimate how much school a child is missing if the days are intermittent. That's why EVERY DAY MATTERS!

and an enlightening panel discussion with distinguished military veterans.
