Miss Chandler from EPMS and Miss Irons from EPHS teamed up to form a cooking collaboration.
Our younger bulldogs enjoyed a lesson on kitchen safety and had some fun making pepperoni crescent rolls! Such great teamwork!

Mrs. Peterson's 6th-grade students engaged in a lesson focused on entrepreneurship and economics. They collaborated in teams to create an original invention or business idea. Afterward, they developed a "Shark Tank" style presentation to try to convince some savvy "sharks" to invest in their businesses. There was a lot of hard work and creativity throughout the process!

Our 7th graders' annual trip to Camp Frederick is packed with a whole week's worth of fun in just one day!

Over the past month, Miss Barkett’s 7th-grade students have had a front-row seat to the wonders of nature. They started with tiny little caterpillars and carefully observed them as they went through the incredible process of metamorphosis.
And now.......they have been released into nature!

One of our favorite days of the year is Gardening Day with Threshold Residential Services! Each year, we take our 5th-grade students on a fun adventure to the Sensory Garden, where they help prepare and plant for the new season.
