2nd Grade had a blast exploring ‘Mystery Matter’ on Friday! As a fun wrap-up to our last science unit on the properties of materials, students made their own oobleck — a gooey, crazy substance that’s both a liquid and a solid! It was the perfect hands-on experiment to end the year🤗

Huge shoutout to Paul Norton Elem for an outstanding emergency drill! 🏫👏 Students followed expectations, listened to adults, and moved calmly to their locations. Staff were encouraging, prepared with trauma kits, and the nurse had her full wagon ready. Great job! #BettPride
