Springing Back into Action

 

Welcome back! We hope everyone had a joyful Easter and a relaxing break. It’s been wonderful to see the school buzzing with energy again.

This week, our 5th and 6th Grades kicked things off with a fun and educational trip to the Liberty Science Center, where they enjoyed hands-on exploration and learning.

The 7th and 8th Grades also enjoyed a field trip to see Romeo and Juliet at Pax Amicus Castle Theater. The engaging performance + beautiful setting, followed by a cast Q&A and scene demonstration, made for a fun and enriching experience for all.

What a great way to jump back into school!

 

Looking ahead, May is filled with exciting events, so mark your calendars!
