Nurtured by sun, soil and tiny hands-our preschool Nurtured by sun, soil and tiny hands-our preschoolers are growing a delicious garden!

Today for lunch they enjoyed a colorful, homemade salad created from veggies grown in our preschool garden.  They even made their own dressing! 

Thank You Mother Earth! 🥕🥦🌶

It's always a highlight when Bali, our Director of It's always a highlight when Bali, our Director of Equity, Inclusion and Belonging drops into the classroom to lead an activity. 

Today, Bali spent the morning with our 2nd graders where their lesson focused on inclusivity, not just about letting everyone join in, but also ensuring that everyone can participate, too. After reading "Giraffes Can't Dance," they discussed how the party in the book could have been more inclusive for the main character. Then, students worked together and designed their own inclusive parties! One group created ziplines for all ages, plus swings for those scared of heights, while another offered physical activities for those who felt a need to move their bodies, plus a music box and a petting zoo for a more relaxed experience.

We are so thankful to Bali for bringing real life equity lessons to life in our classrooms every day and increasing our capacity for understanding each other and the world around  us. 🌈🌟🌈

Omega ❤'s Tybee! Our Omegans are off on a big a Omega ❤'s Tybee!

Our Omegans are off on a big adventure this week- their end-of-year trip to Tybee Island, Georgia. They are loving their time at the @burton4hcenterontybeeisland on Tybee and learning so much about the beach, ocean and salt water marshes that cover the island. 

Our Middle schoolers have spent their days exploring the beaches, learning about the ocean life (including a shark disection!), sea kayaking, hiking through marshes and of course enjoying a sweet treat at everyone's favorite- @sugar_shack_candy_shop !

We can't wait to hear all about their adventures when they return at the end of this week! ☀️🏖🐚
