Wie geht's @WestRidgeSchool ? And bonjour! High school German and French students visited Grade 6 today to sing songs, play games, and discuss language learning at PRHS. It was sehr gut! Bon travail! They're off to @EastBrookOwls for the afternoon!

Just happened to walk into K-M @EastBrookOwls during snack time, with a little poetry reading and some 'snowball' toss. So much fun!

Just a small collage of photos from today's 7th Grade STEM Challenges during their exam break. Students collaborated to solve a crime, build a newspaper tower, solve mini-challenges, and stack cups using only string. I saw lots of smiles - what a great break from midterms!

Enjoyed visiting Mr. Lebreault’s Engineering and Design class yesterday! So impressed with the student’s bridge designs! So far the leading design was able to hold over 10 pounds! Great work!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I had so much fun with these young engineers in Ms. Chiocco's grade 1 class @WestRidgeSchool. They smiled their way through a lot of learning from failure, and everybody's ideas got a chance to improve the designs!

Clever and fun experiment in Mr. Lebreault's physics class! Can you determine the height the stomp rocket reached based on the time it takes to travel?
