๐ Thank You, Verabank!
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our community partner, Verabank, for hosting our fifth-grade students for an engaging Financial Literacy Field Experience on today, Friday, April 10th.
Through this meaningful real-world learning opportunity, our students strengthened their understanding of important financial literacy concepts such as:
Saving and spending wisely
Understanding banks and financial services
Making responsible financial decisions
Experiences like this help bring classroom learning to life and prepare our students to become responsible, informed leaders in their future.
Thank you, Verabank, for investing in our students and supporting their journey toward lifelong success! ๐๐๐










She embodies the heart of our campusโinnovative in her teaching, supportive of her team, grounded in IB values, and a natural leader. We are proud to call her a Mustang! ๐๐

Thank you, Ms. Brittentine, for lighting the way for our students each day! ๐

This week, we proudly celebrate Ms. King during Assistant Principal Week.

Join us in thanking Ms. King for her leadership and service to our Mustang community. ๐๐
