Mrs. Locke and Mrs. Tarrant’s kindergarteners had a blast soaking up the sunshine and practicing one of our favorite values—being a great friend!
From sharing slides and swinging to taking turns on the playground, our youngest ABC Stars are learning that recess is even better when we play together. Take a look at these sweet smiles and budding friendships! 📸💙#4theT









We are celebrating the incredible custodian team at Annie Belle Clark Elementary! Day in and day out, they work tirelessly behind the scenes to keep our classrooms clean, our hallways shining, and our campus safe and welcoming for every student and staff member.
Our school simply couldn't run without their hard work, big smiles, and dedication to our ABC Stars! 🌟💙#4theT

Our coaching visits are focused on Math instruction, providing opportunities for teachers to reflect, try new strategies, and strengthen their instructional practices.
It has been exciting to see both teachers and students respond to feedback and new ideas as we continue to grow our math instruction. We are grateful for the collaboration and support Dr. Adams provides as we work together to strengthen learning for our students! #4theT

It all began with the “Mystery Box” where they had to blindly feel the item in the box (an Apple) and use describing words to tell everyone else about what they felt.
They then used ALL 5 senses to write about apples: what they smell like, look like, sound like (when biting), feel like, and that ultimately led into their Apple Stations where they got to taste different apples.
They got to weigh apples using a classroom scale, experiment to see if it would sink or float, stamp paper using Apple pieces, make a hat, and taste/vote on their favorite type of Apple.
They had SUCHHHHHH a fun day!! #4theT

Our ABCE students performed skits on our morning news for our Science Words of the Week: physical attributes and force! Through creative mini-performances, they showed their peers how we observe an object's properties and how pushes and pulls make things move. It was a fun, memorable, and engaging way to make science vocabulary stick across the whole school! 📺💡
Take a look at our talented student actors powering through their roles! 📸💙 Ask your student tonight if they can give you an example of a physical attribute or force! 👇#4theT





Together, let's encourage our students to show up, be engaged, and make every minute count. Every day. Every class. Every opportunity.
