Today, Murrell Thornhill, IV from Tharp Funeral Home & Crematory spoke to some of Mrs. Kidd’s classes about death, funerals and the process of grieving. This was a supplemental activity for the novel, The Boy in The Black Suit. The students loved meeting Maybe, the therapy dog!

Mrs. Kidd’s English classes have been doing a unit on Shakespeare. While listening to the stories they have been working on this unique and amazing mural!

What an amazing day! We were able to take some students out with the JRA and learn about macroinvertebrates & test the water quality of the James! I’m so proud of our amazing kids who were willing to go on an adventure and overcome their fear of water! They had a blast! #Warriors

Our Eng classes have been reading “The Hate You Give”. One student wore her Tupac hoodie today because the book is largely inspired by him and his activism. “What's the point of having a voice if you're gonna be silent in those moments you shouldn't be?” #Warriors #ReinventLCS
