Powerful work happening at Richland Elementary! I observed lesson internalization and modeling with the ILT & 3rd grade math teachers today. After the model, the team discussed how to make this process part of RLE’s instructional culture. #risddreambig

BHS Rush Week = A Huge Success! College style Rush Week gave students the chance to explore every club on campus from robotics 🤖 to BBQ 🍖 to dance 💃 and discover where they belong. What an amazing way to build community, grow leaders, and ignite school spirit! #risddreambig

Yale’s excellence shows up every day in the classroom! Proud to celebrate their ‘A’ and the incredible teaching and learning taking place. #risddreambig
Mind blown! Mrs.Henke is taking learning to another level today! These 5th graders are diving deep into data analysis, spotting trends from their own experiments. Every student is fully engaged and crushing their group roles to make it all happen! #Risddreambig #yalesoaring
