Year 3 of our EMT Cadet Program is here!

Our Juniors and Seniors are back at it, working alongside our local EMT leaders in this incredible program that our EMT crew launched a few years ago.

Last week, they kicked things off with a pre-training prep night, getting ready for another great year of learning and service. A huge thank-you to our local leaders for continuing to invest in our young cadets.

We’re thrilled to see this program continue to grow and succeed.
Special thanks to Chris, Brad, Jo, and all of our first responders for dedicating your time and expertise to our team.

First graders recently spent part of their art class outside with Mrs. Schweitzer creating texture rubbings.

The 8th grade social studies class has been learning the style while identifying key pieces from the Hudson River School art movement. Working in pairs, they completed a visual analysis where they selected an artist and a piece of their work to describe its style and explain its significance in the context of American art history. After their projects were completed, they participated in a “Gallery Walk” is see examples of realistic depictions of nature through these artists and paintings.
