Horace Mann Elementary

Mrs. McPherson’s class has been truly blessed to have Miss Ramirez as a student teacher this semester. Her heart, her hard work, and the way she jumped right in with our kiddos has made such an impact. We just know she’s going to be an incredible teacher, and we’re cheering her on as she begins this next chapter. Wishing her all the best! 💛📚✨

Mrs. Lehr’s class had a blast on their first day of STARBASE! Students completed a CAD scavenger hunt, built elements and compounds, and mixed substances to investigate endothermic and exothermic reactions. It was an exciting day of hands-on learning and discovery!
