x We are a middle school class of students who live in different communities, but come together to learn. While we learn in different ways, it is our strengths that bring us together. We help each other and love to try new ways to learn. We believe that helping to make our community better is important. We help a local food pantry by unloading the truck of food that they get from the food bank. We have unloaded up to 8,000 pounds in one hour! We work hard on academic and functional skills. We also focus on creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and communication with each other and students around the world.

We have fun learning! We go [|Above & Beyond!]
