🌟 Shoutout to Ms. Nolan and Ms. Fisten's class! 🌟
Thier students participated in an exciting entrepreneurship activity where they designed and created their own unique products! 🎨🛠️ With guidance from our amazing ILCs, students learned valuable skills in creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork. 👏 We can’t wait to see what our future business leaders come up with next! 🚀💡 #FutureEntrepreneurs #HandsOnLearning #CreativeMinds











🚀 Many of our 4th graders explored the question: 'Does the amount of water affect the time a rocket is in the air?' 🌊 Students put their hypotheses to the test by building and launching film canister rockets. A huge thank you to GSSM Jordan for guiding them through this exciting experiment! 🧪👏 #STEMlearning #HandsOnScience #StudentExplorers







Strong reading skills lead to a bright future for our students. A big thank you to our volunteers from Berkeley Electric Cooperative and Santee Cooper who came to read to our students for BCSD's Literacy Powerhouse Reading Week.
