Yesterday, our students honored the brave men and women who have served our country with a heartfelt Veterans Day Assembly. 💙❤️ From inspiring songs and a moving Readers Theater performance, powerful facts about Veterans Day to a Veterans Prayer shared by our students, the program was a beautiful tribute to those who have made sacrifices for our freedom. A special thank you to all the veterans who joined us today — your courage, service, and dedication inspire us all.

Our students had an *out-of-this-world* experience today! 🌙🚀 They had the opportunity to explore the planetarium— a special theater that projects images of stars, planets, and galaxies onto a large domed ceiling. It’s like stepping right into space without ever leaving Earth! 🌌 Students learned all about constellations, the solar system, and the wonders of our universe! 💫🪐
