Alpine

May 18, 2026

At the end of April, Samantha and the entire 5th grade had a fun week at Camp Alpine! They learned all about nature and science, had a variety show, did the ropes course, dealt with lots of rain, and some of them even got hit with food poisoning! Oh yes and Oh no!! Thankfully Samantha was ok but it made for some memories for sure. I love that MBE does this for a full week and am very thankful for the teachers, staff and parents that are willing to go! I share the drop off pictures a few weeks ago and here are lots and lots of photos we were sent once they were back home!

Samantha had a super fun day rotating all around the school to different activities. I went down to watch for the kickball game and – my favorite – tug of war!! These kids are competitive and it’s the BEST!

Weird Science

May 8, 2026

The 5th grade had a science fair this year! Samantha chose a lava lamp project and we conducted the experiment at home varying the levels of oil and water mixed with Alka Seltzer tablets…

LEAD

May 7, 2026

Like last year, Maxwell went on the LEAD retreat at Camp Mac as a member of Spartan Council. He was the leader of the Blue group and I was so proud of all that he did to prep for the retreat…you already saw the team reveal…and after that he made an awesome sign and the best snowman centerpiece ever!
