📚✨ AVID SPOTLIGHT! ✨📚
Today, Coach Cruz’s 8th Grade AVID class took a moment to reflect on the skills they’ve learned and how AVID is helping them grow as students! 💙🧡
From organization to collaboration, goal-setting, and beyond—these Jaguars are building skills for success! 🐆🎓
Check them out! 👀💪
Learning about Earth’s Geosphere… with OREOS! Students in Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Ryan's 7th grade science classes got hands-on while exploring the layers of Earth’s geosphere! Using an Oreo as their model, students represented each layer: Crust: the Oreo cookie, Mantle: the icing, Liquid Outer Core: the chocolate syrup, and Solid Inner Core: an M&M. This tasty model helped students visualize and understand the different layers of Earth while preparing for today’s science quiz!
🍿✨ CONGRATULATIONS, TOP SELLERS! ✨🍿
A huge ROAR to our amazing students who went above and beyond during the Double Good Popcorn Fundraiser! 🐆💙🧡
A special THANK YOU to our SMS PTSA for hosting this fundraiser and supporting our Jaguar family! 💙🧡
We are so proud of our TOP SELLERS! 🎉🍿
