4th graders are working on their butterfly collages in art. They're working on symmetry, texture, balance and blending while using pastels, acrylic paint and tempera paint. Can't wait to see how these turn out.

These Kindergarten kids are rock solid! For the 5th week of school, they're masters at checking out their own books in the library. Very impressive!

Love an early morning on a Friday, the library is busy with kids stocking up on books for the weekend. 🥰
