Our first graders have been hard at work this week practicing their counting skills — all the way up to 120! 🔢🎉
Way to go, Gators! Keep up the great work and keep on counting! ✨👏

They did an amazing job keeping their classroom clean and neat. Way to show pride in your space, Gators!

They showed outstanding CHOMP behavior in the cafeteria by staying quiet and cleaning up their area. Way to go, Gators! 💚👏




Student Leader of the Month for August.
Austin Zambudio
Leadership trait Self-Aware with the motto:
✨ "I can describe what makes me who I am." ✨
Austin had three positive office referrals this month!
From Mrs. Simpson and Mrs. Goins
For choosing to be safe: While walking to lunch, a 3rd grader dropped his milk. Austin stopped to help him and to help Mrs. Simpson. Thank you, Austin, for being so responsible and helpful by keeping our hallways safe.
From Mrs. Martin
Choosing to be safe: When the fifth-graders finished lunch and were headed outside, the kindergartners were headed to the cafeteria to eat. Austin stopped the fifth-grade students from crossing over the kindergarten's line and waited for all of the kinders to pass by before heading outside. What to make a decision that solidified the safety of those fellow gators!
From Mrs. Sechrest
For having respect: Austin was standing in line with his classmates when he saw me walking down the hall with my hands full. As I walked by, he stopped me and asked if I needed some help carrying my things. It was so kind of Austin to notice I had a lot to carry and offer to help me in a time of need. It was great to see him have respect for his teachers and offer help. Thank you, Austin! Your kindness was noticed!
