Kindergarteners in Mrs. Hartsell’s class at Peake Elementary spent their Friday hunting for more than just treats—they were hunting for knowledge! During their "Write the Room" Easter Egg Hunt, students tracked down 20 hidden words, practicing their writing and phonics skills with every find. We love seeing our students so engaged in the ultimate learning challenge!
Empowering the future of education! 📚✨
Superintendent Nikki Thomas and AHS Principal Callie Hunley, along with Gurdon Public School Administrators, spent Wednesday morning at Henderson State University, sharing their expertise with the next wave of teacher interns. From mastering the interview to navigating social media and ethics, it was all about preparing these interns for success in the classroom.
We love seeing the passion in these future educators!
