Pre-K and kindergarten learners had a fantastic Friday, too! Thank you, Mrs. Dixon, for the pictures!











Today, we explored the oceans deep for rainbow fish, octopi, sharks- and happened upon some submarines, too! Our first week of summer learning has been a blast! Stay tuned next week for more!
Also, shout to Maegan Willis, Laura Jennings, Rhoda Dixon, Selena Smith, Jennifer Oliver, Emily Beach, and Tammy Choate for sharing pictures this week! (If I missed anyone, please let me know, and I will mention them Monday.) We have a wonderful summer learning team!!











Painting and building and playing- oh my! Students learned about megalodons, seahorses, and more about pirate ships today. Grades 1-6 attended the public library’s MESStival this afternoon to kick off the summer reading program! Thankfully, the weather held off, and the kids had a blast!











Attention summer learning participants: tomorrow we will go to the library for Messtival! Please wear clothes that can get dirty, because, well- it is called MESStival!!

Summer learning students had oceans of fun today! We dipped our toes into seas of knowledge, made pirate hats, practiced math operations, played learning games, read books, and had the best time in PE playing with friends! We look forward to tomorrow’s new discoveries!

🚀 Tomatosphere Mission Complete! 🍅💜
Today, Mrs. Smith's 4th grade class wrapped up their science unit, Tomatosphere, and what a journey it's been! Students became real scientists as they tested the germination rate of two groups of tomato seeds — one that stayed right here on Earth 🌍 (our control group) and one that spent the last 4–5 weeks aboard the International Space Station 🛰️.
Their mission? To collect data on which seeds sprouted faster — Group A or Group B — and why it matters. Turns out, this research is directly supporting NASA's plans for future missions to Mars, a round trip that will take 2–3 years! Since astronauts can’t pack enough food for such a long journey, they’ll need to grow their own. 🌱🍅
Our young scientists found that Group B, the seeds from space, had a germination rate about 12% lower, likely due to radiation and zero gravity, which are real-world challenges NASA is working to overcome.
Plants in space do more than provide food — they help purify the air, recycle water, and even boost mental health. Today, students proudly turned in their final results and took their tomato plants home — possibly the first space tomatoes to ever grow in their backyard! 🌌🌿
Way to go, scientists of the future! 🚀💜
