Washington School for Girls Celebrates Book Lovers Day

Each year, the staff at Washington School for Girls reads a book together. This year, they chose "Unearthing Joy: A Guide to Culturally and Historically Responsive Curriculum and Instruction" by Gholdy Muhammad (@gholdym, published by @scholastic)

Joy is one of the core values of the school, so they are excited to go on the journey together. Ms. Jensen and the staff started reading last week. What an amazing way to get inspired for the new year!

The Scholar Olympics at Gesu School Includes Collaboration, Friendly Competition, STEAM, and Fun

Gesu’s Youngest Scholars program held its annual Scholar Olympics! Our 3rd-5th graders had fun with some friendly fitness competitions, participating in track and field events and obstacle courses. Students also took part in a STEM curriculum based airplane launch, as students measured the distance of how far they were able to toss their paper planes! Congratulations to all our students and teachers for taking part in these initiatives. Special shoutout to Ms. Asta and our rising 3rd grade scholars for winning first place in the Olympics, and to Mr. Joe for receiving the “Best Coach” award! #GesuWorks
