First- and third-grade parent, Katy Park-Li, organized a phenomenal MADE by Explorers Marketplace. More than 80 Explorers created their own wares and proudly displayed them on sale. We were so impressed by all the creativity and marketing prowess of our young entrepreneurs!

Dancing Storytellers

Kindergarten and 3rd grade parent, Tana Everhart, invited performing artists from The Music Center. The students were enthralled by “Indian Mythology and Me," a dynamic dance and theater performance created by the Dancing Storytellers. Overheard from a young student: “It wasn’t a video! They were real dancers on stage!”
