Ms. Pluym’s students got an awesome surprise today from Artzee Fartzee! 🧌✨ Before state testing, they each designed their own monster—and today, they got to see their 2D drawings come to life as 3D creations! What a fun and creative way to celebrate the end of testing and finish the year strong. Huge thanks to Artzee Fartzee for making this magical moment happen! 💫🎨

Fifth graders stopped by this afternoon for the annual "Movin' On Up" visit. They learned about their lockers, the library, met some of the staff, and toured the school. It was a great afternoon with them!
