Lower School Families, 

We’ve had a great week in the Lower School! 

  • In the QUEST Center this week, Early Childhood students discovered sinking and floating, experimenting with a pot of “gold.” 3rd graders enjoyed a cooking demo with Chef Pat. 5th graders in Mrs. Hoapili’s homeroom built carnival games using Legos and coded them to perform specific motions.
  • On Monday, kindergartners showed off their reading powers by zooming into Morning Meeting as Super Readers. 
  • 5th graders joined Middle School on Tuesday for Step Up Day. 
  • On Wednesday, we celebrated Tayln’s birthday during chapel & 1st graders traveled to Independence Park Theatre for a special viewing of The Three Little Pigs. 
  • On Thursday, many 3rd - 5th graders exercised their math brains in the 2nd annual math competition after school. 
  • And today, the whole school celebrated the Festival of Colors, uniting together, forgetting all resentments, and celebrating the onset of Spring! We encourage you to lay a towel or blanket in your car for the ride home. Students will be colorful!
