The Ravens at East Middle finally surprised her (and we love that her own child did not even tell her what was happening)! "Happy Mrs. Bangham Appreciation Day" on this almost last day of Principal's Appreciation Month! We love you, and we are so incredibly grateful to have you as the leader in our nest.

A special thank you to all the staff and students who went out of their way to write notes of appreciation and/or wear pink and green today in honor of Mrs. Bangham's favorite colors. We also appreciate everyone's efforts to keep this a special surprise over the last few weeks as the plans were becoming realities.

Our Learning Commons has gone virtual!

Sixth graders traveled back in time to the ancient world, using interactive Merge Cubes to explore fascinating artifacts like the Rosetta Stone and Canopic Jars. They also toured incredible sites including the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Wall of China, the Mayan city of Tikal, and more.

Meanwhile, seventh grade DLI students set sail during the Age of Exploration—comparing Old and New World cities and even stepping aboard Columbus’ ships.

It’s been an exciting few weeks of hands-on (and virtual) learning in social studies!
