Happy first day of summer break, Cardinals-we miss you already!

On the last day of school our 1st graders traveled to Hawaii today as part of our virtual adventure! Students learned all about the beautiful islands while enjoying a fun-filled day of activities. They went on a virtual field trip, made erupting volcanoes, learned how to hula dance, played “Pin the Sunglasses on the Pineapple,” and cooled off with delicious Dole Whip! 🍍🌴

Meanwhile, our 4th graders celebrated the last day of school and the beginning of summer break!

We are so proud of all our Cardinals and the memories made this year. ❤️

What an amazing way to wrap up the school year! We are so proud of all of our students and everything they accomplished this year. ❤️🖤

A huge THANK YOU to our incredible teachers, staff, families, community, and PTA for your endless support throughout the year. Your dedication helped make this year so special for our Cardinals!
The last days of school were filled with so many fun activities and unforgettable memories — from Field Day, glow parties, and classroom celebrations to awards ceremonies, the Senior Clap Out, 5th Grade Clap Out, and our daily staff countdowns. These moments are what make our school family so special.

We hope everyone has a safe, relaxing, and fun-filled summer! ☀️
Enjoy your break, Cardinals — we can’t wait to see you again in August!
