5th graders from Mrs. Nelson's class have been learning the impact of plants on our environment. Their contribution to clean air and how we as humans need a healthy vegetation around us to thrive is a key component of their lesson. Thanks to a grant from GEFFE they are growing their own herbs using a hydroponic lab. Students planted basil, dill, thyme and other herbs. Once they are grown they will cook with the herbs using the Charlie Cart mobile kitchen, also provided through GEFFE. We are blessed every day by GEFFE donors!
Your student is invited — please RSVP
Dear families, We’re going to Portugal and Spain in Summer 2026, and you’re invited!
We’re excited to tell you more about the trip we’re planning with EF Tours, our educational travel partner. Please be sure to register for this info session to be considered for this opportunity: https://rsvp.eftours.com/j455g2g
When students travel, they expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, and grow more confident. These skills are critical for creating the global citizens of tomorrow, and we would love to have your student join us on this adventure.
In this info session, we’ll talk about: How this opportunity will benefit your student, what we’ll see and do on our trip, everything that’s included in this experience, how your child can earn academic credit, how we’re keeping this safe and affordable, how to enroll on this trip (before it fills up!) during EF’s risk-free enrollment period
There are limited spots on this trip, so we would love to have you attend this meeting to learn more about this exciting opportunity!
