After reading Chrysanthemum, first graders learned about using hurtful words and how it can cause someone's heart to wrinkle. They then discussed about how hard it is to unwrinkle a person's heart. #Bekind #Community #BighornBlue

Attention 6th-12th grade students! We’re excited to tell you more about the trip we’re planning with EF Explore America, our educational travel partner. Please be sure to register for this info session to be considered for this opportunity: https://rsvp.efexploreamerica.com/5yfth4a

When students travel, they expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, and grow more confident. These skills are critical for creating the global citizens of tomorrow, and we would love to have your student join us on this adventure.

In this info session, we’ll talk about:
-How this experience will benefit your student
-What we’ll see and do on our trip
-Everything that’s included in this tour
-How your child can earn academic credit
-How we’re keeping this safe and affordable
-How to enroll on this trip (before it fills up!) and get a limited time discount

There are limited spots on this trip, and those at the meeting will have first access.
