🚀 At Tulakes Elementary, Mrs. Aguilar turned her classroom into a grocery store 🛒 where students took on the challenge of planning a family dinner with a $50 budget. As they "shop" for ingredients, they’re learning essential skills like budgeting, decision-making, and financial literacy. 💰✨ Over the next few weeks, they'll also navigate unexpected expenses, just like in real life!

These 6th-grade Capps students are solving more than just math problems; they are making a difference in the community! After collecting food for the Capps Food Pantry in November, they decided they wanted to go even bigger for December. A group of about 100 students collected food and donated it all to City Center. Their math teacher, Mr. Cobb, said his goal is to instill in his students to "see a need...meet a need." 🤗

It was a chilly morning and the Kirkland Pirates were settled in for a story in the library when out walks The Grinch! Or, was it their Librarian?! With a mischievous grin from Grinch and some giggles from the students, they read "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" together with a fun twist. We think they all learned a little something about the holiday spirit and kindness. 💚
