Kindergarteners at Coleman Elementary have been working hard on their cutting skills, and they are officially scissor-certified! 🤗
Students are also getting their bodies ready to learn with morning yoga. Stretching, moving, and calming their minds help them start the day feeling focused and ready to learn.

Meet MVR-III alum Brent Batcheller, Class of 1993. 🎓
Brent is an educator at Rockwood Summit High School, where he teaches social studies. He is most proud of achieving National Board Certification in Teaching and earning the President's Council Award for Sports, Nutrition and Fitness.
Brent says his time at MVR-III was shaped by caring staff who worked to build lifelong relationships and the numerous extracurricular programs that helped prepare students for life beyond high school. Whether he was participating in choir or competing as a three-sport athlete, one program in particular helped inspire his career in education. Through Hi-Step, Brent and other students visited elementary schools to work with younger students on making healthy choices.
His advice for current students: Get involved, stay involved, take risks, and you'll find a new passion.

Students in Mrs. Mathes’ 4th grade class at Coleman Elementary put teamwork and perseverance into practice with a challenging puzzle activity! 🧩
Working in groups without knowing what the completed puzzle looked like, students had to communicate, collaborate, and work through challenges together. It was a hands-on way to learn that struggles can be part of the process, and that working together can help find a way forward.

Building foundational skills is most effective when learning is interactive and fun. Families can support this growth anywhere, whether you are counting trees at the park, spotting letters on road signs during your commute, or sorting snacks at home.
How do you bring learning into your everyday routines?
