First graders at Elon Elementary went on a global "field trip" to South Africa today! 🇿🇦 🛫 Students boarded a pretend flight with Capt. Principal Dr. Davern as their pilot. He kept the plane steady as they enjoyed in-flight snacks and facepaint before "landing" and heading out on a safari at Kruger National Park, where they learned about local wildlife! 🛍️ After traveling to some other destinations, they sampled local treats and visited a "gift shop" with some cool souvenirs! ✨ This memorable trip was made possible by our wonderful Participate Learning teacher Mrs. Haripershad, and other school staff, who helped plan and add to the experience. 📚 Now students are creating a picture book about what they learned. An unforgettable educational adventure! #StudentCenteredFutureFocused

We love sharing student showcases! 🎤 We're proud of the first-grade students at AO Elementary who participated in their monthly Poetry Cafe this week. The young poets each selected a poem to practice at home before presenting to their classmates, building valuable public speaking and self-confidence skills. For this month's Cafe, parents were invited to see their children share their work. Watching the students' excitement as they recite their poems is a highlight for both the students and staff. Events like Poetry Cafe allow students to showcase their talents while covering speaking standards in an engaging way. Kudos to the students and staff at AO Elementary for fostering creativity and self-expression! 👏 #StudentCenteredFutureFocused #ABSSCommunity
