Did you know that our school garden is a biodiversity hotspot for the Monarch butterfly? Our native flower beds have milkweed, the only food the caterpillars eat, and flowering plants for adults. These insects migrate 3,000 miles and we help them on their way twice a year by raising the butterflies in class. Students get to witness their life cycle, from egg to butterfly, and then release them on their way. Habitat loss is the biggest reason their numbers are in decline. You can help save these important pollinators by planting milkweed and native flowers in your own yard!

Geometry in action! 📐 Our students are moving beyond the textbook and seeing how math works in the real world.

From building triangles with skewers to exploring circle properties using dynamic software, they're not just learning formulas—they're becoming real-life problem-solvers. This is what engaged, hands-on math looks like!
