The annual Transform DC mural unveiling event kicked off last week! We were so excited to see 12 schools display their student created murals @BuildingMuseum! Murals will be on display throughout the summer! @dcpublicschools
Over the last few weeks our kindergarten students have become mini entomologist who set up butterfly gardens in their classrooms. Using their journals, they have observed and documented changes of caterpillars into butterflies. Let us know how it’s going in your class!

Bands of all shapes and sizes are bringing the house down on THREE stages today at @kencen for Performing Arts Festival 2023! A big shout out to all of the @dcpublicschools students, staff and families that have made this a truly remarkable week!
Our Kindergarten students @HendleyES and @JanneySchool learned the importance of eating fruits and vegetables in our @DCHPE Cornerstone Growing Vegetable Soup. Students were then tasked with classifying items as fruits or vegetables and sorting them by color. @dcpublicschools
Our 7th grade Parkour and Rock-Climbing cornerstone teaches students a variety of movement techniques that allow them to overcome physical and mental obstacles in their environment. Students then have the opportunity to display their mastery at our Annual Parkour Jam, June 1st!
Always excited to see our Cornerstones in action!
