🎀BREAST CANCER AWARENESS🎀

On Wednesdays, we wear pink during Breast Cancer Awareness Month! 💞

Students, staff, and families—join us in showing support and spreading awareness by wearing pink each Wednesday throughout October.

Even though the weather cut their trip short, our fourth graders had a blast exploring the Jupiter Lighthouse and discovering the rich local history! A huge thank you to our amazing PTA for making experiences like this possible!! #BCEGators #LearninginAction #UnstoppableTogether

🎉 Day 4 Update – House Attendance Challenge 🎉

Congratulations to Innovation House for taking the win today! 💡💚 Your commitment to showing up and being present is paying off.

But the biggest question remains… 👀
👉 Will any House rise to the greatest challenge and achieve 100% attendance before the end of the competition?

Every day counts, every Gator matters. Let’s see who shows up strong tomorrow! 🐊💪

STRONG ATTENDANCE = STRONG LEARNING 💪🍎

When students are in class every day, they gain the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed.

Attendance always matters, but October 6-10 is especially important. That's the week the state takes its enrollment snapshot to decide school funding for the year.

✅ Students in class = accurate snapshot = the right funding to support stronger schools in our A-rated District and better opportunities for our kids.

Let's work together to make sure our students are here next week—it makes a difference for everyone.

Our 2nd graders are at it again! Our incredible 2nd graders have been working hard and showing what it means to be curious, creative learners! In math, they’ve been exploring a variety of strategies to solve problems, and even taking their learning outside-one student used leaves at recess to build arrays! In writing, they’re crafting thoughtful  opinion essays, learning how to express their ideas clearly and confidently.  In social studies, they’ve been traveling the globe (through books and maps!) as they learn about the continents and oceans. They’ve also been visiting the Media Center to grow their love of reading and discover new books. 📚 Keep up the amazing work, 2nd graders- we’re so proud of you! #BCEGators #LearninginAction #UnstoppableTogether
