Through experiments and collaboration, our 4th grade students observed how energy transfers and how motion changes during collisions. It was amazing to see their critical thinking skills in action as they made predictions, tested their ideas, and discussed their results together.

The future is bright with these budding scientists! #LEARN #itsathompsontigerthing

So proud of our Student Lighthouse Team! 🌟

They spent their time serving and packing meals at Feed My Starving Children, helping provide hope and nourishment to children around the world. ❤️

Watching our students lead with compassion, teamwork, and servant hearts reminds us what leadership is truly about. The impact may seem small in the moment, but every meal packed makes a difference!

Way to shine bright and be the light in our community! 💛✨#SERVE #itsathompsontigerthing
