📚✨ Great academic conversations were happening in 6th grade ELA today! As students launched Unit 2 and explored the essential question, "How do relationships shape us?", they engaged in a Give One, Get One AVID strategy, sharing ideas and learning from their peers. Students then worked together to create collaborative summaries that captured their discussions and reflections. It was wonderful to see students actively listening, building on one another's thinking, and engaging in meaningful dialogue. These rich academic conversations help strengthen critical thinking, communication skills, and deeper understanding of the concepts we're exploring. 🦁💙 #AVIDStrategies #ShowUpForMore #FutureReadyLions

7th grade Students explored the dynamic processes that shape our planet during our Snack Tectonics Lab! Using edible models, they investigated how tectonic plates interact at divergent and convergent boundaries. Through hands-on learning, students observed how mountains, subduction zones, and other landforms can form as Earth's plates move. This engaging activity allowed students to connect complex Earth science concepts to real-world geological processes while having a little fun along the way! A special thank you to our families for donating supplies and helping make this memorable learning experience possible. Your generosity and support are greatly appreciated and help bring science concepts to life for our students! #HandsOnLearning #EarthScience #SnackTectonics #FutureGeologists #ThankYouParents

Good afternoon, Lions!

Please note that we have a heavy police presence in the area for an incident unrelated to Murray. All students and staff are safe, but we are following the Martin County Sheriff's Office guidance and are in a lockout. We will remain in close contact with them and provide additional information as it becomes available.

Thank you,
Principal Roth
