The first session of enrichment for our 4th graders was focused on 3D design. Students designed and printed their own name keychains, as well as some of their own creations!
The second grade enrichment class finished up their community service unit by creating cards for children in hospitals. These cards will be sent to Cards for Hospitalized Kids (https://www.facebook.com/CardsForHospitalizedKids/) for distribution to children across the country.
The 5th grade enrichment class completed their passion projects this week. Each student researched a topic of their choice and put together a display board to showcase what they learned. These boards will be displayed in the library for students to view.
