Summer Spotlight: Books, Balloons, and Tiger Tales! 🌞📚
This week, Tigers visited LWJE's library and had a blast reading Neck & Neck by Elise Parsley. In this story, Leopold the giraffe is adored by children for his tall neck, but one day he finds himself competing with a new rival – a giraffe balloon! Afterward, students played their own balloon game and checked out books.
At St. James R-1, we understand that literacy is the cornerstone of overall education, fostering critical thinking, creativity, and lifelong learning. 📖✨ #SummerSchool #stjschools #tigerpride
Summer Spotlight: Middle School Science Fun! ☀️📚
In our middle school summer program, students are not just learning—they're having a fantastic time! Mrs. Mulhall's science class explored the fascinating world of kinetic and potential energy. Students learned that objects with more mass and speed have greater kinetic energy, while those with less have less. They also investigated how the height of an object influences its potential energy.
It was a hands-on, engaging, and slightly messy day, but the fun and learning were unstoppable! #stjschools #summerschool #academicexcellence
Summer Spotlight: Lion King Kids Summer Camp Roars to Life! 🦁🎭🎶

Our kindergarten team wrapped up their service learning project at the end of the school year with a final visit to Trinity Episcopal Church's Blessing Box.

Their project reflected our mission: empowering students through caring relationships, academic excellence, and community partnerships. We're proud of our students for showing kindness and community spirit! #MissionMonday #stjschools #tigerpride
