Mrs. Kyles 4th grade scientists just wrapped up their investigation on how many drops of water a penny can hold! 🧪💧

It's amazing to see them apply the scientific method in real-world experiments, testing hypotheses, and observing the results. We had a blast exploring surface tension and discovering the magic of water molecules!

🌟 Exciting News from PE Class! 🌟 Our amazing PE coach, Coach Jeremy, introduced Disc Golf to our elementary students this week — and they absolutely LOVED it! 🥏 Watching the kids learn the rules, aim their throws, and cheer each other on was incredible. It’s such a fun way to get moving, practice hand-eye coordination, and enjoy some friendly competition outdoors. Big thanks to Coach Jeremy for bringing this fresh and exciting activity to our school! Can’t wait to see all the future Disc Golf champions in the making! 💙 #DiscGolf #PEFun #HealthyKids #ActiveLearning #ElementarySchoolFun #MakingWAvesOfGreatness

We kicked off the new school year with our first rally of the year on Wednesday, and what a way to celebrate! From kindergarten through 5th grade, our students packed the gym with energy, school spirit, and smiles!

One of the highlights? A hilarious inflatable costume race featuring some brave and enthusiastic teachers — trust us, it was a sight to see! 😂👏

We also took a moment to welcome our new Staffulty members and give them a warm, spirited introduction to our amazing school family. 💛

And a huge congratulations to our newly crowned Staffulty of the Year — Ms. Kirsten Mitchell and Ms. Ramona Ladner. Thank you for your incredible dedication and heart. We’re lucky to have you! ✨

Our kindergarteners wrapped up their unit on colors in the most delicious way — by making Pete the Cat Fruit Pizzas! 🐾🍓🫐🍍

After exploring colors through books, art, and hands-on activities, today they got to bring it all together using brightly colored fruits to decorate their own sweet creations. It was the perfect mix of learning and fun — and yes, Pete the Cat would definitely say, “It’s all good!” 😎

Great job, baby Hawks — we’re so proud of how much you’ve grown already! 💙

HNCE August Cafeteria Menus

Our Kindergarten artists had a blast creating scissor salads after reading “Scissors on Strike” and learning all about scissor safety! 🥗✂️ These little creators practiced their cutting skills while serving up some seriously creative (and safe!) masterpieces.

Meanwhile, other students explored our Early Finisher centers — full of imagination, hands-on fun, and plenty of chances to stretch their creativity.

Way to go, artists! 👏🖍️

Ms. Garriga passed her Wave Maker board to Ms. Emily Hollon, a shining example of the greatness we strive for daily. In our self-contained classroom, where every moment matters, she consistently goes above and beyond with a calm spirit, a compassionate heart, and a contagious smile.

Whether she's supporting students through daily routines, taking on new tasks with flexibility, or simply offering a kind word, Mrs. Hollon brings patience, positivity, and purpose to everything she does. Her love for the students is evident in every interaction, and her dedication makes waves that ripple far beyond the classroom walls.

Thank you, Mrs. Hollon, for your joyful presence, unwavering dedication, and the steady, supportive role you play in helping our students thrive. You're truly making waves of greatness every single day!

Once again, thank you to Ms. Jacobs for her creative touch on our Wave Maker Board.
