🎉📚 Wrapping Up Academic Week! 📚🎉 We ended Academic Week on a high note with a fun and well-earned Friday celebration! Our Advanced/Proficient Grade-Level/EOC students from the 24-25 school year enjoyed a field trip to Elephant Rocks & Arcadia Academy 🚌🌄 Students explored the beautiful scenery, spent time together, and celebrated their hard work and academic achievements throughout the year. To make the day even sweeter, each student was treated to an ice cream at Arcadia Academy 🍦 This week also highlights how important our state testing is. It gives students the opportunity to shine and truly show what they have learned throughout the year. We are proud of the effort, growth, and determination our students demonstrate during this time. #wechooselearning

🎉📚 Academic Week Celebration Continues! 📚🎉 On Wednesday, we had the chance to celebrate an amazing group of students who demonstrated outstanding commitment by achieving 95% attendance or higher! 👏 To recognize their dedication, these students were treated to a hot dog BBQ 🌭—a small way to say thank you for showing up, staying engaged, and making their education a priority each day. A big thank you to our chefs, Officer Bobby and Dr. Rinne, for cooking and helping make this celebration so special! 👨‍🍳👏 On Thursday, we continued the celebration by treating all students to snow cones 🍧 and recognizing everyone’s academic success. It was a great way to celebrate the hard work happening across our entire student body! We are so proud of our students’ dedication and effort. Keep it up! 💪✨ #wechooselearning #strivingforexcellence #wildcatpride
