Happy first week of spring, Eagles! The sunshine and warmer weather have been perfect for outdoor learning, and we’re excited to kick off our Naturally Amazing Outdoor Adventure Challenge! Classes can earn badges by completing lessons and assignments that make use of our beautiful outdoor spaces, like the nature trails and outdoor classroom. We can’t wait to see our Eagles exploring and learning in nature!
We had a fantastic Farm Day on Friday with our younger students, and it was wonderful to see their excitement as they engaged with hands-on learning about agriculture. A huge shoutout as well to our talented student singers who represented us so well with the National Anthem at the Rock Lobsters game on Thursday night—what an amazing moment!
Looking ahead, we’re excited to cheer on our Eagles competing this weekend in the 4-H Competition and Science Olympiad. We know they will SOAR and make South Jackson proud!
