💻🤖 Tech Night in Action! 🤖💻

Browning, Klaus, & Metts classes hosted an awesome Tech Night where students became the teachers! 👏✨ Our Cubs showed their families how to use classroom technology like Ozobots, Indi Coding Cars, and Sphero robots. 🚗🔵

Students truly shined as Effective Communicators and Empowered Learners, confidently explaining, demonstrating, and guiding their parents through hands-on tech experiences. It was amazing to see their knowledge and leadership on display! 💡💬

We love watching our Cubs love, learn, and lead—especially when they get to teach us! 💙🐾

🌱🌼 Growing Learners in Kindergarten! 🌼🌱 Ms. Hutchins’ kindergarten Cubs had an amazing visit to the FFA Greenhouse with Mr. Dunaway’s class! 🌿👩‍🌾👨‍🌾 Students toured the facilities, learned how plants grow, and discovered how a greenhouse works. The fun didn’t stop there! Our Cubs painted their own pots 🎨 and planted baby plants 🌱 that will stay in the greenhouse until they return next month to check on their growth—how exciting! This hands-on experience helped our students grow as Empowered Learners and Engaged Citizens, exploring science in a meaningful and memorable way. 💡🌎 A big thank you to the SCEF for funding this incredible learning opportunity! 💙 At SCES, we continue to love, learn, and lead—getting our hands a little dirty along the way! 🐾🌿

Moments like these help build confidence, courage, and a love for reading! 💬📖 We love seeing our students love, learn, and lead—rain or shine! 💙🐾
