Young Researchers on the Move! Miss Nieuwkoop’s class spent last week proudly sharing their animal research projects with faculty and classes throughout the school!

During second quarter, they collaborated to create a class animal research book, but this quarter each student had the opportunity to research an animal of their choice.

They did an amazing job not only reading their books aloud, but also teaching others fun and fascinating facts about their animals. The excitement and pride they showed in sharing their learning was incredible to see!

Way to go, Miss Nieuwkoop’s class — future scientists and authors in the making!

Mark Your Calendars! 📅

We’ve had parents and staff members asking as they begin planning summer activities and vacations, so we wanted to share that our current last day of school is scheduled for May 28, 2026.

As always, this date is based on our approved school calendar and could change if additional emergency/snow days are needed — but as of now, May 28th is our official last day.

We hope this helps as you start making those summer plans!
