Check out this great video from our field trip earlier today. We are so proud of our students! The book is called Built to Swing: Beaufort's Woods Memorial Bridge. If you are interested in purchasing your own copy, please reach out to Mrs. Blake.

Two years ago, our esteemed writing teacher, Mrs. Blake, began a special project with our then–fourth graders. Students researched our beautiful Woods Memorial Bridge here in Beaufort and wrote about its history, as well as the unique process of how it opens and closes. Now in fifth grade, these same students have brought their words to life through thoughtful illustrations, created alongside our outstanding art teacher, Mrs. Kent.

Then came a wonderful idea: What if their work could become a published book? From that spark, a nearly year-long journey began. Our dedicated staff guided students every step of the way—from revisions and edits to storyboarding and design. Through countless hours of hard work, perseverance, and commitment, their vision finally became a reality.

We are deeply grateful to our PTO for generously sponsoring a copy of the book for each student author, and to our administration for their unwavering support throughout this project. At times, the finish line seemed far away—but together, we reached it.

This morning, the students celebrated their achievement with a walking field trip to Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park. For the first time, they held the published book they had created – a truly unforgettable moment. We were honored to welcome Bridge Captain Bobby Boyer, who shared his expertise, answered questions, and even arranged a maintenance opening of the bridge. Students watched in awe as the bells rang and the bridge slowly turned—bringing to life everything they had studied, written, and illustrated.

As cheers echoed across the water, the city paused, if only for a moment, to honor this remarkable group of fifth-grade students from Beaufort Elementary.
