King Elementary

🎃What a spooktacular day! Mrs. Lower’s 6th graders had a frightfully fun time celebrating Halloween and showing off their creativity in the costume parade! From teamwork and artistic designs to imaginative costumes, our King Lions let their creativity shine. So many smiles, laughs, and Halloween memories made! #KingLions #HappyHalloween #CreativityInAction

Pretty sure this wasn't in our teacher contract… but here we are! 😂 We teach, we inspire, we occasionally lose our minds… and apparently, WE RUN RELAYS! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ One PTA Fun Run fundraiser later, and suddenly we're all Olympic relay athletes (in our own minds, anyway). The handoffs were questionable, the competition was REAL, and the dignity? Well… that got left on the track. 🤣🏆 Thanks, PTA, for giving us an excuse to act like kids during the school day! And to all our students for surpassing the fundraising goal! #TeachersGoneWild #KingLions #FunRun #TeacherLife #PTAFunRun #OlympicDreams #SchoolSpirit

Field Trip Fun at Cross R. Ranch! Our 2nd graders had an amazing day this week exploring and learning at Cross R. Ranch! 🐄🌻 They put their classroom learning into action as they discovered the difference between living and nonliving things, learned about plants and how corn mazes are created, and even got to explore a corn maze of their very own! 🌽🧭 The fun continued with visits to see the farm animals and plenty of time to explore all the exciting activities the ranch had to offer—including a slide, obstacle course, corn pit, giant LEGO building, jump pads, and so much more! And, of course, no fall field trip would be complete without a pumpkin! 🎃 Each student got to pick out a pumpkin to take home and keep—the perfect way to remember a fantastic day!

📚🔐 Locking in to unlock reading potential! 🔓📖 Miss Berrett’s second graders have set their goals and are taking ownership of their reading growth! These great students chose their own ways to help them reach their class goal and gave committed some of the following strategies to help them: reading multiple nights a week, completing at least one monthly PTA bookmark, reading to a stuffed animal or pet, or cozying up with their family for some reading time. 🧸🐶 Every book, every page, and every night of reading helps grow skills one word and one book at a time. 🌱📚✨ These readers are locked in and ready to unlock their potential! 🔐➡️🔓

In remembrance of 9/11 Mrs. Morrell's 5th grade class read “The Man in the Red Bandana”. This book is about a man who saved people in the twin towers and wore his red bandana to cover his mouth. They talked about how they could serve those around them and then went to lunch with first grade to help them at House lunch. Their class was SO excited to be helpers! #Team5thGrade #KingLions
