Help us restock our shelves! We have 243 books currently out in the wild, and we need them back in their home!
All library books are due tomorrow. To avoid 'lost book' fines, please ensure all items are turned in on time. Students can easily double-check their titles and any pending fines on Classlink via their Destiny account.
Thank you for helping us keep our library well-stocked and ready for the next round of readers!

As the school year wraps up, our students are still firing on all cylinders. In this project, they’ve engineered a fully automated toll booth—from the ground up!
Using a VEX V5 system and some clever coding, they’ve programmed:
Line Follower Sensors to detect the car’s approach.
Automated Gate Mechanics that open and close seamlessly.
LED Indicator Lights (Green for "Go!", Red for "Stop!") to guide traffic.
A "Forever Loop" to ensure the system runs smoothly for every car in line.
It’s inspiring to see these young engineers applying logic and hands-on skills to solve real-world problems. Great job, Benjamin and Arabella! 👏🔧

We had an incredible visit from author Scott Reintgen at our school! He shared so honestly about the writing process, especially the challenges, setbacks, and failures that are part of the journey, and reminded our students not to give up on their goals.
Scott also talked about taking a leap of faith, leaving his dream job of teaching to pursue his dream of writing. His story was both inspiring and motivating for our students and staff alike.
Thank you, Scott, for your time, your honesty, and for encouraging our students to keep pushing forward.
It was also a pleasure to experience this with 8th graders from Beaufort Middle School!

Important Message Regarding Bus Transportation:
Unfortunately we no longer have a driver for our 288 afternoon bus route. We have been working closely with our district’s transportation department to explore every possible option for a permanent driver for Bus 288. Despite these joint efforts to secure a dedicated replacement, at this time we must move forward with a new routing plan to ensure our students have consistent and reliable transportation home each afternoon.
To make this possible, we are rerouting Bus 288 students onto Bus 250 and Bus 279. We are also incredibly grateful to our partners at the elementary school, who have stepped up to help transport some of our 288 students.
Important Details:
Morning routes remain the same.
Afternoon drop-off times may vary for the first few days for all bus students as we settle into this new routine.
Letters home: All Bus 288 students will bring home a letter today or tomorrow with their new assigned bus number and estimated drop-off time.
New routes will begin Monday afternoon. We truly appreciate your patience and support as we work together to get our students home safely. If you have specific concerns, please reach out to Mrs. Harrell.
Our Exceptional Children have started a weekly coffee cart for our teachers. Students are provided with a list of coffee, tea and hot chocolate orders. They have to prepare the orders based on the teacher's selections which include extras such as sugar, sweet and low, and a variety of creamers. Once the drink is made, our students deliver the order to each individual teacher's classroom with a homemade thank you note.
In an effort to keep the coffee cart rolling, Ms. Pitman has created a Donors Choose Project. Click the link to learn more and please share with others.
