Our next field trip was to Sky Zone and was packed with excitement! Students jumped, flipped, and flew on the trampolines, faced off in a game of dodgeball, tested their skills on the obstacle course, and conquered the climbing wall. It was an action-filled day of fun and laughter.






Our first field trip of the year took Larry and Noah’s advisories to Carlson’s Llovable Llamas! Students had a blast learning about these unique animals and, yes, confirmed they live up to their name: definitely Llovable!
