Garfield School’s 4th Graders are piloting a brand new Language Arts Program. They had an end of unit celebration. The theme was “Geology Rocks!” Students dressed like rock stars and participated in Geology Jeopardy, “Rock” Bingo, and trivia. They even watched live footage of a volcano eruption in Hawaii. Everyone is excited about Amplify CKLA.
🌸 Wishing our entire school community a relaxing and refreshing Spring Break! 🌞 All schools will be closed from Monday, April 14 through Monday, April 21. We look forward to welcoming students and staff back on Tuesday, April 22!
