Our 4th graders enjoyed a special visit learning about Sāmoan culture. We welcomed Dr. Rebecca Penerosa from Westminster University and Saumani Penerosa. Students learned the Sāsā dance from Sāmoa and listened as Mr. Penerosa played the pake.

Our 3rd graders went on a field trip to the movies to deepen their learning about animals. While watching Born to Be Wild, students observed a variety of wildlife and learned about the different habitats of animals around the world.
