Have you ever thought about what parts of your identity are important to you right now? This is exactly what our 2nd graders are discussing as they learn about identity and the importance of representation. @lCCSDFamily @CCSDMagnet @ClarkCountySch #weekofrespect

Hispanic Heritage Month is not complete without some Hispanic folk art. Our students learned about "alebrijes" from Mexico. These mythical, magical creatures are spectacular. Our new art teacher rocks! #HispanicHeritageMonth #gilbertexploCCSD

Our fifth graders just performed Pirates of Penzance in our beautiful theater! The students sing, dance, act, create props, and play instruments for the show. It is an incredible collaboration of the arts!

Gilbert's matinee is a beautiful collaboration of specialists and classroom teachers. Bravo giraffes!

November is Native American Heritage month. Mr. McQuillan’s 2nd graders used tableaus to show the traditional homes of the northeastern tribes. Can you guess what it is?

Ms. Cohen’s 4th graders were busy creating giraffes, sea creatures, favorite foods, and aliens during the Clay Game!
