📚 State-Wide Inservice Day Recap ☕️
A huge shoutout to TwinStar Credit Union for sponsoring the Lone Tree Coffee Truck and providing delicious pastries to keep us fueled throughout the day! The staff kicked off the day with an insightful training on the Neuroscience of Teaching and Learning and Social Emotional Learning (SEL).
A special thanks to Superintendent Mrs. Padgett for orchestrating our 2nd annual Potluck Challenge! 🍲 Staff brought their best dishes—Elementary contributed main dishes, Middle School served up sides and salads, and High School delighted us with desserts. Everyone voted for their favorites, making for a fun and delicious break in the day.
We’re grateful for the community spirit that keeps our team strong and morale high! 🙌
