Students in our Prek4 classes have been learning all about apples during our thematic unit this week! They have learned about the different parts of an apple and the apple life cycle! Today we followed directions to make applesauce and boy was it yummy!

Today was Pride-in-the-Hive Day and what a joyous occasion it was. Students were able to join their other Hive members to celebrate the start of a new year. Lots of dancing and singing while learning how to S.W.A.R.M and learning what it will take to take to earn all of those Bee Bucks. Which Hive will come out on top and win the big surprise trip at the end of the year?

What an amazing turnout today at our open house as staff welcomed over one hundred families. The event was very successful. Students enjoyed great music, snowballs, pizza, and many fun games. We had quite a few stakeholders show up today to support our staff and families and we would like to say thank you all for coming. More importantly, our little Bees and their families got to meet their new teachers and check out their classrooms. We are looking forward to the start of a new school year!

DCPS has kicked off another wonderful school year welcoming all staff back into the buildings. Today was a very special day for Sandy Hill because we got to board one of our busses to take a tour around the community. Staff were able to greet many students and give out many hugs along with some other goodies. Just look at those smiling faces! The students wanted to stay on the bus and some even thought it was time to come to school. We will see you soon Bees!
Don't forget! The Bee Bus will be buzzing through the neighborhood on Friday, August 23rd between 3:30 and 5:00. Don't miss out!
