Miss Grimes is proud of her 4th period Beginning Brass students, and with good reason!
During Wednesday's sectional practice, students explored how to play different partials on their instruments, while learning how to control airflow and other elements to produce a strong, clean tone. Not only were they engaged and answering questions—they were already taking the next steps to apply what they learned in real time.
🌟 Shoutout to Dallan, Grayson, Clever, Chris, and Jack — keep up the great work, boys! Your dedication and progress are truly impressive.

In the picture, Instructional Coach Vickie Oliver introduced and modeled an instructional routine for teaching students new vocabulary. 📝🔤
She connected the strategy to the Science of Reading professional learning teachers are currently completing and showed how it ties to an effective, standards-based classroom. 🌟👩🏫
Making sure all students are reading on grade level is a school and district priority, and strengthening vocabulary across all content areas is a key step toward that goal! 💪📚🌈

Today in Health class, Miss Wetherington's students explored the importance of nonverbal communication. 💬✨
Students worked in groups to create and perform skits that showcased different forms of nonverbal cues. Afterward, the class came together to discuss what they observed — highlighting both effective and ineffective examples of body language, facial expressions, and more.
This hands-on learning not only sparked creativity but also deepened students' understanding of how we communicate without words.
Awesome job, everyone! 👏
