We are so proud to celebrate our very first Morning News Broadcasters! 🎥⛰️

Two of our outstanding 4th-grade students, Norah and Wyatt, stepped into the spotlight and are doing an excellent job delivering our live morning announcements.

They show confidence, poise, responsibility, and true Mountain Lion Pride as they help our school start the day informed and inspired!

A special thank-you also goes to Mrs. Kahn, media specialist, for taking on the exciting role of leading our live morning news broadcast.

We are grateful for the creativity, energy, and commitment being poured into this new opportunity for our students.

What a wonderful way to build student leadership, communication skills, and school community—one morning broadcast at a time! 📺🎙️📚

During reading groups, learning is stronger when kindness leads the way. When a friend shared that they might need help, Nylah quickly responded, “If you need help, let me know—I will help you.”

Proud of the caring hearts, confidence, and teamwork growing alongside our readers each day! 📚💛
