Happy New Year Jaguars, and here's to 2021 being a blast! Sixth grade students presented their presentations on volcanoes around the world in December's final week of in-person learning. After sharing on the scientific and historical background on their volcanoes, students recreated eruptions using creative concoctions of soda, Mentos candies, dish soap, baking soda, and a variety of other household items.

SA Annual Fund: Faculty Spotlight
Here's something to smile about: 2020 is in the rearview mirror! While the past year has presented serious challenges and hardships that have changed our lives in a variety of ways, it has also uplifted the strength of our school community and the dedication of the students, teachers, staff, and families within it. In the video above, enjoy our next SA faculty and staff spotlight on middle school teacher Mrs. Kelli Starrett!
