Huge congratulations to our amazing students who represented our school at the district level in Reading Rumble! 📚✨

While only eight students per team are able to attend, we are incredibly proud of all the hard work, dedication, and teamwork shown throughout the entire season by ALL of our Reading Rumble students. From day one, our R.R. students committed themselves to reading, discussing, and mastering SIX different books, what an accomplishment!

Way to go, readers—you’ve made us so proud! 💙📖

Our 6 LI/TD Magnets came together for an incredible 4th Annual 4 E’s Competition! 💡

We worked to EMPOWER through Socratic Smackdown, ENRICH with trivia, ENGAGE using Hands-On Equations, and EXPLORE through exciting STEM challenges.

A team of 20 students proudly represented Idlewild, collaborating, problem-solving, and earning points for our school along the way. Every moment showed the power of teamwork and the impact of learning together!

🎉💯 Happy 100th Day of School! 💯🎉

Today we celebrated being 100 days smarter and it was too cute for words! Our students showed up dressed like they were 100 years old—complete with gray hair, glasses, canes, and some seriously “elderly” attitude 😄👵🧓

They also brought in amazing 100th Day projects, showing off creativity, counting skills, and so much hard work!

We are so proud of how far our students have come in just 100 days. Here’s to learning, growing, and having fun every step of the way! 📚✨
