Thanks to all of the outdoor education staff for all of the hard work they have been putting in to make a great trip for our students!  Special thanks to Kendra, Judy and Laura P for making the special trip out there and back yesterday, the students definitely enjoyed it!

I can't wait to see Benjamin Middle School's production of Beauty and the Beast in March.  Between now and then Melissa, April and Danielle will be putting in the work! 


Apps and websites for gifted and talented students.  A lot for the little guys but if you scroll to the end you will find some for middle school.
