Tough Elementary

On this day, we remember those who sacrificed for our freedom.

🎓✨ Today, we celebrated a very special milestone—our kindergarten graduation! 🎉👩‍🎓👨‍🎓 Our youngest learners walked across the stage with big smiles and even bigger dreams. It was a joy to watch them sing, dance, and shine with confidence as they marked the end of a beautiful year of learning and growing. To our amazing kindergartners: We are so proud of you! Your curiosity, kindness, and courage inspire us every day. 🌟 To our dedicated teachers and supportive families: Thank you for guiding these little stars on their first steps of their educational journey. ❤️ Here’s to new adventures in first grade! 📚✏️

Mrs. Brock , Mrs. Sundin, and Ms. Gomez's classes had the most fun End of Year Party yesterday!

What an honor to celebrate the retirement of these two incredible educators and our devoted school nurse! Your years of dedication, compassion, and the impact you've had on your students' lives will never be forgotten. Wishing you all the best in this exciting new chapter—you've truly earned it!

The 4th Grade Spring Fling Silly String Party Winners Had a Blast with the Teachers!

🎉 Our 4th and 5th graders have been busy showcasing their creativity and all they’ve learned this year! 🧩 4th grade students designed their very own board games, while 📚 5th grade students created amazing scrapbooks filled with all the topics they explored throughout the year. This week, both grades participated in a fun gallery walk—visiting each other's classrooms to check out the projects and celebrate their hard work! Great job, students! 👏✨

🎉🍕 Some of our lucky kindergarteners enjoyed a special Pizza Party with Mrs. Julien, our amazing principal! This fun experience was one of the exciting items from the Spring Fling Silent Auction—and what a treat it was! 😄💛

Our final Spotlight ceremony of the year focused on Citizenship! 🌟 Please join us in celebrating our amazing Spotlight recipients! To demonstrate citizenship at school, our students get involved in both the school and community, take care of our campus and environment, and show kindness everywhere, every day. A special shout-out to our 6th grade ambassadors who helped with today’s ceremony!

Our 4th, 5th, and 6th grade choir students had a wonderful concert tonight! A heartfelt thank you to Mrs. Cawley for everything she has done for our students! They truly sang their hearts out during Mrs. Cawley’s final concert before her retirement.

We had a special Safety Officer today! Nico earned this exciting opportunity from Spring Fling, and he took his role very seriously. He stayed busy walking around campus with Mrs. Peyreau to make sure everyone was safe, helped during the fire drill by using the walkie-talkie to check in with each grade level and team, and made sure every staff member was wearing their badge at all times!

Our 4th and 5th grade students in Math Puzzle Club have amazed us all year with their enthusiasm and determination to learn new and challenging puzzles. From Sudoku, Kyudoku, Calcudoku, to Nonograms, logic equations, and more—these young problem-solvers dove in with curiosity and grit! To celebrate their growth and learning, we ended the year with a fun and friendly competition. 🏆 📣 Please join us in celebrating our Math Puzzle Club Champions! 🥇🎊 We are so proud of all our students for their hard work and puzzle passion this year!

Our 3rd grade students just finished their animal research projects, and they did an amazing job! Each student got to pick an animal they were curious about and used web resources to complete a research outline. Then came the fun part bringing their project to life! They got creative with Google Slides, Book Creator, dioramas, trifold boards, and even some awesome potato animals. Their hard work and creativity really showed!
