Today we had the joy of making a Good News Call home for one of our shining stars in 2F! 💛
She has been a phenomenal helper and friend to everyone. Without being asked, she steps in with kindness, includes others, and makes sure everyone feels safe and welcome.
This is what “Shine Bright” looks like in action — kindness, leadership, and lifting others up. Way to go, sweet girl! We are so proud of you! 💫

All week long, our Explorer learners have been buzzing with excitement as we shared clues about our mystery school-wide book. Today was the big reveal! 🤩
We’re thrilled to launch our One Book, One School Celebration with the story, Because of Winn-Dixie, by Kate DiCamillo. For the next two weeks, each class at Explorer will be reading the same book. A special copy is coming home today (one per family) so you can join in and read along at home!
A huge THANK YOU to our amazing Explorer PTO for donating the books and funding all of our fun decorations. Your support helps make this community reading adventure possible!

🌟 Good News Call of the Day 🌟
Today we want to give a big shout-out to a student in 1M who truly let his light shine!
He was a wonderful role model for his classmates today—working hard, showing respect, and leading by example throughout the day. One moment that stood out was when he confidently led his class down the hallway modeling PAWS expectations and was polite to another class as they crossed paths.
These are the moments that make us so proud. Way to show PAWS and shine bright, buddy! 🌟👏
