Each week, teachers identify a student as the WOW student of the week. These students are highlighted for going above and beyond in some area. Teachers share the reason with the class. Each student gets a certificate, a coupon for a free donut from Donut Chain and has their picture shared in the flyer.
Note: If your student has dietary preferences that conflict with donuts, let me know and we have some alternatives.
Let's hear it for ...
Juan Riso Figueroa (Ortlieb), Liam Garcia (Lawrence), Cristiano Sanchez (Wong), Olivia Rodriguez (Hoffman), Audrey Phan (Leonard), Jordie Zaha (Blankenship), Dominic Peek (Wightman), Cynthia Munoz Lara (Garcia), Mateo Rodriguez (Fano), Devin Yoo (Kiblinger), Keilee Cohen (Hanna), Lucy Ng (Gill), Shay Miekosz (Seitz), Bailey Koh (Marasco), Caleb Aguilar (Amaya), Oliver Lee (Pipkin), Laith Alkamshh (Simmons/Cruz - 5th), Kenzie Tsai (Cruz/Simmons - 6th)

Each year, the National PTA holds a Reflections art contest to encourage students to share their voice. Students can submit art entries in film, dance, music, visual arts, writing, photography and more - and can submit at all grade levels. The theme for 2026-2027 is "What My Culture Means to Me". Feel free to brainstorm and create over the summer to submit in the fall!
We had an incredible number of 5th grade students who completed The Great American Challenge! To be considered as having completed the challenge, they had to:
Memorize all 50 states and capitals
Memorize the preamble to the Constitution
Know the Pledge of Allegiance
Sing the Star Spangled Banner
Demonstrate understanding of the history of the US Flag

Students created their own Pigge and Elephant (and assorted character) stick puppets and created their own mini plays to perform in front of the grade. They weaved in many of the friendship and kindness skills they've learned this year such as including others, helping one another, being assertive instead of passive with needs, being upstanders, sharing, and more!
