Big Ideas

Effective collaboration relies on clear, respectful communication.

Living things have life cycles adapted to their environment.

Living things are diverse, can be grouped, and interact in their ecosystems.

Curiosity and wonder lead us to new discoveries about ourselves and the world around us.

Through listening and speaking, we connect with others and share our world.

Daily participation in physical activity at moderate to vigorous intensity levels benefits all aspects of our well-being.

Learning how to participate and move our bodies in different physical activities helps us develop physical literacy.

Movement skills and strategies help us learn how to participate in different types of physical activity.

All field trips include a farm work experience, as well as a chance to harvest and taste veggies, when seasonally available. We require 1 teacher/chaperone for every 8 grade K-3 students and for every 10 grade 4-12 students.
