As a school, we celebrate our diverse student body, with over 140 students who are multilingual and come from at least 30 different language backgrounds. Our theme, "We All Smile in the Same Language," highlights the unity and pride in our community. The posters created by our students will be displayed in the school, showcasing the rich diversity and fostering a sense of belonging among our students.

Our 7th grade students recently conducted a lab on Crash Test Dummies, applying Newton's First Law of Motion. Through this hands-on experiment, students learned about mass, acceleration, speed, and even engineered safety harnesses. This real-life application of science concepts helps students develop important skills and understand the importance of safety measures like wearing seat belts.
