Recently in Ms.Volos 5th grade science, students investigated physical and chemical weathering using sugar cubes! 🧊🌎
Students observed how forces like wind and water can physically break down rocks, while also seeing how substances like water can cause chemical changes that weaken them over time. Science is always sweeter when it’s hands-on! 🌎🔬

March is Women’s History Month! Behind every great student is a village—and a huge part of ours is powered by incredible women! Let's celebrate the pioneers who paved the way for our students today.

From the laboratory to the library, women have consistently broken barriers and redefined what’s possible. Our goal is to ensure every girl in our hallways sees herself in the stories we teach and the leaders we celebrate.

🎨 March is Youth Art Month! 🖌️

🎨Art isn’t just an elective—it’s essential. Art education develops the critical thinking and divergent problem-solving skills our students need to thrive in a global society.

From the first crayon stroke to advanced digital design, our art programs help students:
Build a better quality of life through self-expression.
Develop a unique "voice" in their community.
Prepare for a future that values innovation and creativity.

Join us this month as we celebrate our young artists and the incredible educators who guide them!

Yesterday was Maintenance Worker Appreciation Day, and we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible team that keeps KWCPS running safely and smoothly: Tony Stone, Tony Arizzi, Chris Wrenn, and Ryan Gault!
From fixing leaky pipes in the middle of winter to ensuring our classrooms are bright, warm, and ready for learning every single morning, these dedicated professionals do the heavy lifting that often goes unseen. They don't just maintain buildings; they build the foundation for our students' success.
