Sixth and Seventh grade got to spend the day at the tide pools at Camp Keep. Everyone is having a great time!
It's always a pleasure to have the folks from @StemTaught on the BW campus. They bring great enthusiasm for students and the thrill of learning science. Today we focused on ocean animals and their habitat. #1townschoolcommunity @MissDPayne2 @SmallSchoolDA @nrea1 @miroyscience
TY @MissDPayne2 for discussing the challenges and the high points of our school. You have always been valuable to our school community.
