What Success Looks Like

Here at Estes we want all students to be successful. Here is a young man who is tasting what success is like. To be successful in school and in life you have to work hard even when things get difficult. Nick has been working extremely hard with his reading and his hard work is paying off. Ms. Billings is proud of Nick and so are we!

Honesty and Integrity

Honesty and integrity were demonstrated by Ana who found a $20 bill at school. She could have kept the money and no one would have ever know, but she did the right thing and turned it in. She is just one of many fine young people we have at Estes! She is pictured wearing the I'm Awesome necklace. Yes, she is AWESOME!

3rd Grade Science

Third grade students learned about what it takes to be an environmental engineer. These students found ways to clean up an oil spill. Take a look at our future environmental leaders.

Researching Penguins with Ms. Billings

Ms. B's first grade class kicked off their penguin research project today. They broke into 2 groups. They did research online through a safe search engine as well as reading non-fiction texts.  Today, they focused on "How do penguins move?" After recording their notes we had a share session where Ms. B recorded all of our findings. We are doing our research so we can write our very own non-fiction book. It's going to have lots of features of a non-fiction text, even a glossary and table of contents.
