Adventure Awaits at Camp Read-A-Lot! 🏕️
2nd graders are counting down to the end of the school year with the alphabet! For today’s Letter C theme, their classrooms were transformed into Camp Read-A-Lot. 📚✨
I had a blast visiting our young explorers. From cozy tents and flashlights to "Camp Counselor" Jenson leading the way, the creativity was off the charts. We even had a surprise visit from Gus, who couldn't resist joining the fun! 🐻
It’s moments like these that make learning such a great adventure for our Grizzlies.
Happy Camping! 🐾🌲

Our End of Year Alphabet Countdown is officially underway, and today was all about the letter B!
From under the sea to the Magic School Bus, our 2nd-grade teachers and students really brought their favorite stories to life for Book Character Day. We had a blast seeing who would walk through the classroom doors next!
Check out some of our amazing costumes:
The Rainbow Fish 🐟 (Looking very sparkly!)
Ms. Frizzle & The Magic School Bus 🚌 (Seatbelts, everyone!)
We are so proud of our Griffin Grizzlies and their love for reading. Only 24 letters left to go! 🐾
