Classroom Spotlight!

Students in Mrs. Anderson's CLDE class took part in learning about the phases of the moon for the past few weeks. They wrapped up their learning by creating the moon phases with Oreos and officially became moon phase experts!

Ms. Leja's middle schoolers participated in a science fair! Be sure to ask your student what they presented.
