Make It Happen 2019 was a huge success, we raised $67,733!! 
Not only did we beat our $60.000 goal, we surpassed it with the help of generous donations from sponsors to raise the additional $7,000 needed to complete our Wish List goals of: The 6th Grade Hovercraft Project and incentives for all grade levels and specials departments! The playgrounds are now completed and all grade levels & specials have purchased their wish lists!  
Thank you again to everyone who participated to help us
​Make It Happen in 2019!

New Playground Pictures

The K-2 playground has been completely replaced and fresh mulch has been laid.
  The 3-6 playground has been completely reconfigured. Some old pieces were removed, some pieces were relocated and 2 slides, a bubble storm climber and hurricane spinner were added. The 3-6 playground also received new boarders and fresh mulch.

The 6th Grade Hovercraft Project

Our entire 6th grade class participated in The Hovercraft Project on Wednesday, 11/13/2019.  The Hovercraft Project is a large scale, team immersive, curriculum infused, S.T.E.A.M. and CORE integrated project. The students built a fleet of fully functional, safe and reusable hovercrafts. Here are a few pictures to show you the work they completed and the fun they had!

A special sponsorship bench has been placed on the K-2 playground to honor the 2019 Make It Happen Campaign and our Tiger Pride & Tiger's Den Level Make It Happen Sponsors.
