Shout out to our very own, Ms. Johnson and Mrs. Sporer, who are a part of this distinguished cohort!

📊✨ The LRSD Teaching and Learning Department has wrapped up its Math Model Classroom Teacher Cohort 1, launched last summer!

Participants from across the District were selected by building and district leaders in recognition of their leadership and impact. Throughout the cohort, teachers engaged in learning focused on high-impact instructional strategies and strengthening the math community in classrooms, all with the goal of improving math experiences for every learner across LRSD.

We celebrate the dedication and growth of these educator leaders as they continue to elevate math instruction throughout the District! 💡📚

End of Year Awards Assembly

Our 5th graders officially said goodbye to elementary school and hello to their middle school journey. For many of these students, Watson has been home for the last six years — a place where they learned, grew, built friendships, discovered their talents, and became leaders. Watching them walk across the stage today was a proud moment for our entire Watson family.

Congratulations to the Watson Elementary Graduating Class of 2026! Your future is bright, and we know you will continue to carry The Watson Way wherever life takes you next.

A special thank you to our amazing 5th grade teachers — Mr. Gaddie, Mrs. Warford, and Ms. Hall — along with our staff, families, and community partners whose love, support, and dedication helped make this moment possible.

We also proudly recognize our academic honorees:
🏅 Valedictorian — Samuel Vicente Gallardo
🏅 Salutatorian — Jeffery Umanzor

Congratulations, Eagles! Once an Eagle, always an Eagle! 💙💛
