Meadow Brooks Wellness Room serves as a sanctuary within our school environment, offering a safe and nurturing space for young students to address their physical and emotional well-being. This dedicated room is thoughtfully designed to provide a range of essential resources, such as cozy seating, calming decor, and age-appropriate mindfulness activities, which empower children to manage stress, anxiety, or emotional challenges effectively.

The preschool students are learning about the K sound in their speech group lessons this week. They listen to a story full of this sound, then each get a turn to pick a “cow spot” and practice the word on it, then stick the spot to the cow. There have been a lot of good K sounds coming from these students! 

This year our school’s theme is “Elevate.”One way our fourth graders have helped elevate others in the school is by creating “Elevation Trail.” As people walk down the fourth grade hallway, they can read the positive messages written on the rocks and be uplifted. Our fourth graders had a fantastic time creating these elevation rocks and did a great job!

Be careful of the fire breathing dragons that you will find created by the dragon Masters in the ACC room. 

As the new school year began, Ms. Thomas’s students took time to create a powerful class motto together. We created our motto based on how we show respect to ourselves, others, and our school. Brainstorming ideas was fun and we are so proud of the phrases we came up with together! We will state our motto daily and try to live closely by it this year! Here’s to an amazing successful year!

We have been learning about nouns.  We have learned that a noun is a person (or animal), a place, or a thing.  To help us all remember, we created a Noun Town!  We had fun making mountains, trees, cars, homes, and even a lake with a duck and shark!

It's a fantastic day as we warmly welcome Mrs. Dyal to our school community. We're excited to have her join us, and we thought it would be a great idea to share some fun "Mrs. Dyal facts" to get to know her better. So, let's dive right in!

1. A Proud Mom of Four: Mrs. Dyal is a dedicated mother with four amazing kids, ranging from 17 to 6 years old. Her love for family shines through in everything she does, and we're lucky to have her as part of our school's family.

Gratitude. The quality of being thankful or a readiness to show appreciation for and return kindness. My friends this is what gratitude looks like. We have been learning all about citizens and communities here in Ms. Harding’s class, and we wanted to show appreciation for those super citizens in our community who serve us every day! So, thank you Miss Balli, Miss Hallam, Mr. Ledesma, Miss Ward, Mrs. Graves, Ms. Porter, and so many others!

Kindergarten is in full swing! We have been learning all of the procedures at school! Recess is our favorite time of the day!
