Students and teachers alike were entertained today by Steve and Lisa James. Their message of being kind and having the power to make a difference came through words and music. Students were even singing along with the fun renditions of Christmas music Steve shared with us. Great way to kick off the season!

6th graders had an amazing day learning more about ancient Egyptian culture and architecture. First, they took part in learning how to build a sturdy, tall pyramid. Next, they learned the secrets of mummification while performing several of the steps on their stuffed animals!
