Building Highlights
Math-A-Rama was a great success! Our students enjoyed spending the day at SMC.
Here are a few shots of our 3rd grade students sent to me by Ms. Hill. Pictured in both photos are: Tyne Z., Dominic R., Kayleeonna W-L., Jenora L-C. and Kaston M. Congratulations to all of the Math-A-Rama participants!

On April 9th, our 5th grade students traveled to the Sarett Nature Center in Benton Harbor. This trip was funded by a Conservation Club Grant. Our classes were eager to have a hands on experience that coincides with their science unit Energy and Matter in Ecosystems. Ms. Ortiz and Mr. Suvarna shared some pictures of the student during the trip.
