We are so excited to welcome back our friend and a We are so excited to welcome back our friend and alumni parent Rene Treece with @luxehousephotographic  for another year as a Rainbow Community School Business Sponsor! 

Luxe House Photographic is dedicated to capturing the beauty of family, children, and mothers to be through timeless, nature-based portrait photography. In addition to family and children’s photography, Rene also specializes in branding sessions that
highlight the essence of a person’s craft or business. These sessions are designed to tell authentic stories of artists, makers, and healers, giving them visual tools to share their work with the world. Rene's branding artistry is evident in the beautiful images used in Rainbow Community School's branding materials (as seen in this post!). 

Across both family portraiture and branding photography, Luxe House Photographic's guiding principle is the same: to honor people and their stories in a way that is soulful, genuine, and lasting.

In early childhood, play is the foundation of lear In early childhood, play is the foundation of learning. It encourages diverse vocabulary, foundational mathematics concepts, and ensures that the child’s relationship to school is fostering inquiry, engagement, joy and purpose. 

Our first graders have been learning about number bonds and we recently found them gleefully engaged in number bond hopscotch, followed by a race around our new sidewalks... joyfully combining the mental and physical domains of learning!

Our fourth grade class is deeply immersed in their botany unit, learning about photosynthesis and plant parts, creating botanical art, sipping freshly harvested herbal teas, planning garden beds, and prepping the soil! We can't wait to see what their gardens will grow!
