🌱💧 Making Every Stride Count—One Plant at a Time! 💧🌱
Our 7th grade students at Maces Lane Middle School are bringing their learning to life by caring for the plants they started just a few weeks ago as part of our Pickering Creek action project on climate change!
Through this hands-on experience, students are not only learning about environmental responsibility, but also taking meaningful steps to make a positive impact right here in our community. 🌎💚
We’re so proud of their commitment to growth—both in the garden and in their understanding of how small actions can lead to big change!

🎨✨ Figurative Language in Action at MLMS! ✨🎨
Our 6th grade RLA students in Mrs. Mowbray’s and Mrs. Kolakowski’s classes took learning beyond the classroom and into the sunshine! ☀️
As part of their study on figurative language, including metaphors, similes, and personification, students participated in a creative “chalk the walk” activity. Each student selected a figurative phrase and illustrated either its figurative or literal meaning using sidewalk chalk.
The result? A colorful showcase of creativity, critical thinking, and joyful learning right here at Maces Lane! 💛🖍️
We love seeing our Tigers bring their learning to life in such meaningful (and fun!) ways. Be sure to check out the amazing artwork!
