🎓 Bridging the Past and the Future, One Step at a Time 🎓 Seniors from across the District took a stroll down memory lane at their former elementary schools today for their "Senior Walk" as current elementary students and their former teachers cheered them on. There was no shortage of hugs, laughs, high fives, and even embarrassing photos shared by all. It seems like just yesterday these "little learners" were walking these halls, and now they are walking across the stage as the "big kids."

☀️ Leaps, Bounds, and Laughter 🤸 It's that time of year when students across the District trade in pencils and textbooks for inflatables and yard games to celebrate a hard-earned successful school year. From elementary schools' Super Kids Day to PCN's Field Day, students of all ages participated in some fun in the sun!

🐛 Blooms, Butterflies, and Buddies 🦋 Students at elementary schools across the District have been studying the transformative process of their beautiful caterpillars turned butterflies, while high school Environmental Science and Botany students have been hard at work transforming and growing the PCN Outdoor Classroom. 🌻 Today, the two converged to showcase the symbiotic relationship between the pollinators and the flowers as our Dennis Dolphins traveled to Putnam City North to release their beloved butterflies into Mother Nature. Many elementary students said, "Bye-bye, butterfly" to their insect buddies as they spread their wings and flew to the beautiful flowers.
