At WES, wellness is better together! 💚

Staff gathered for a Wellness activity to make holiday energy bites—fueling our bodies, building connections, and spreading some seasonal joy. Thanks to our WES team for always showing up for one another!

D is for Dinosaurs! TK students have been learning about dinosaurs this week. Reading, math, science, and social studies were integrated within this unit as students pretended to be paleontologists and dug for dinosaur fossils.
Students loved the engaging hands-on activities and lessons. Students especially loved rolling dice and chiseling the dinosaur eggs. #TKdinosaurfun.

'Tis the season!
