Our Girls on the Run Gators crossed the finish line of their 5K with so much heart, determination, and joy!

Long before race day, these girls showed their commitment by waking up early every Tuesday and Thursday, meeting before school while most of the world was still hitting snooze. In those morning hours, they weren’t just training for a 5K, they were building confidence, friendships, and a belief in themselves that will carry far beyond the course.

We are so proud of each and every runner. Your hard work, your heart, and your dedication truly inspire us all. Big shoutout to Coaches Krampitz and Lubo for dedicating their time to lead our runners! Way to go, Gators! 💙🐊

Our IMPACT class projects showed just how far curiosity and creativity can take our Gators. The range of ideas this year was incredible, and what stood out most was how thoughtfully students approached real-world challenges from every angle.

Some projects focused on improving everyday life in practical ways. From a thick-bristled hairbrush with a built-in spray bottle for easier styling, to a custom reel designed for the perfect cast, our students proved that innovation can start with simple problems and turn into meaningful solutions. Others took on more complex systems, diving into topics like stock options trading and exploring ways professional teams can better navigate salary caps.

One project that truly drew a crowd was a fully coded and designed video game created by one of our eighth grade students. She set a personal goal to build a longer, more complete game within a deadline, blending her passions for coding and writing. Focused on social issues like blackmail, the game takes on a “choose your own adventure” format, guiding players through different scenarios and offering helpful ways to respond and navigate those situations. The result was a powerful, thoughtful experience centered on helping teens manage social anxiety in high school.

These projects are a reflection of what happens when students are given the space to think big, take risks, and follow their interests. Way to go, Gators!

Our Primary School Project Based Learning (PBL) experience brought learning to life in the most meaningful ways.

PreK 2 explored animals and pets, learning how to care for them through proper food, water, shelter, grooming, and love. With visits from veterinarians and the creation of 3-D printed pets, their learning connected real life with creativity and STEM.

PreK 3 became builders, studying construction, creating their own blueprints, and bringing them to life by building brick and mortar structures to display. Their teamwork and problem-solving were on full display.

PreK 4 dove into textiles and design, sewing pillows, weaving, mending clothing, and learning where fabrics come from. Through journaling, discussions, and incredible guest speakers, they explored PPE, fashion design, and cultural clothing. Their hard work led to a special red carpet showcase of their designs.

This is PBL in our Primary School, hands-on, creative, and rooted in real-world learning that builds confidence and curiosity in every student.

Our First Grade Gators got their hands messy in the best way on a field trip at Sloomoo Institute!

Stretching and squishing to mixing their own creations, this experience was all about hands-on learning. Tactile play like this isn’t just fun it helps build fine motor skills, sparks creativity, and supports how young learners process and understand the world around them.

It was the perfect mix of play and purpose and a great reminder that some of the most meaningful learning happens when kids can see it, feel it, and explore it for themselves.

Our Sixth Grade STEM students took on the challenge of building solar ovens to make s’mores, and even with rainy skies, the learning didn’t stop. They adapted, improvised, and used heat lamps to create the perfect gooey treat.

A little throwback feel, a lot of problem-solving, and the sweetest kind of success.

Art Teacher for the Day, Ms. Addy showed us how ordinary tinfoil and markers can be used to create these incredible vibrant ink transfers. There’s nothing quite like hearing the students’ cheers the moment they peel back the paper to reveal their artwork! 🌈

Our auction winners stepped into a role they’ve been waiting all year for… Teacher for the Day! 🍎✨

This coveted auction prize is always a favorite, and it did not disappoint. Our student teachers took charge of the classroom, led lessons, guided their classmates, and experienced what it feels like to be on the other side of the desk.

Thank you to our Gator community for always bringing the support during auction season. You can tell that those smiles are priceless!
