🍃 Adventure Awaits in Kindergarten! 🍃
Mrs. Haley’s class traded the classroom for the great outdoors today for an exciting nature walk! Our tiniest explorers put on their "observation hats" to discover the wonders of the world around them.
From spotting tiny insects to collecting interesting leaves and listening to the birds, it was a morning filled with curiosity and fresh air. There is so much to learn when the earth becomes your classroom! Watching these students connect with nature and practice their science skills in the wild was the absolute highlight of our day.
Great job, little trailblazers! Keep exploring and asking big questions. 🦋🌼🐢

Today we are celebrating the woman who keeps our school healthy, safe, and smiling—the wonderful Nurse Kim Smith! It is School Nurse’s Day, and we couldn't let the moment pass without honoring the incredible care Kim provides to the Strayhorn Elementary family. Whether she’s calming a nervous student, tending to a scraped knee, or managing the daily wellness of our entire campus, Nurse Kim does it all with unmatched compassion and a steady hand. She is our resident expert, a shoulder to lean on, and a true hero in a lab coat who ensures our students are healthy enough to do their very best in the classroom. We are so lucky to have her expertise and her kind heart watching over us every day. Please join us in showering Nurse Kim with appreciation for everything she does to keep our Mustangs safe and sound!
