How do our young Comets in Mr. Liechty's class exercise their brains during inside recess? By reaping the benefits of playing board games! They're learning collaboration, sportsmanship, practicing good winning/losing skills, critical thinking, and decision-making. Looks like a lot of fun! #growingforthefuture #LEADLikeAComet




5th grade teacher Ms. Boulis wanted to shout out Mr. Logan here for being a good leader by holding the door for Mr. Quintin as he walked past. We love to recognize these little victories! #LEADLikeAComet


Remember last week's post of the 6th graders harvesting thei produce they grew for Culinary class?

They also practiced their knife skills and made homemade fries with the potatoes (not pictured). We love to see our students collaborating! #LEADLikeAComet #CultivatingCometConnections #growingforthefuture
