Arts in Education Week at Wildlight!
Our Trailblazers in 2nd-4th grade are using their creativity to make a meaningful difference!
As part of the Oliver Patch Project, students designed special patches for children who are battling cancer. Their colorful, encouraging artwork will be sent to hospitals across America, bringing smiles, hope, and a little extra joy to hundreds of children.
What a beautiful reminder that art has the power to connect, encourage, and make a difference beyond our classroom walls! We are so proud of our Trailblazers for using their creativity to spread kindness and brighten someone’s day.
Blazing a Trail of Excellence—one creative act of kindness at a time!

Arts in Education Week is here!
Our 4th grade Trailblazers are blending history, creativity, and hands-on artistry!
Students learned about ancient jewelry making and explored traditional sewing and weaving techniques before putting their new skills to work. Their challenge? Create their very own beaded keychains!
We love seeing our Trailblazers learn by creating, experimenting, and making something uniquely their own. Experiences like these remind us that the arts help students think creatively, build confidence, and blaze their own trail of excellence!

I wanted to share an exciting Donors Choose opportunity happening TODAY ONLY! Our school is working to fund mobile standing desks for ALL of our classrooms. These desks will allow teachers to be more present in the hallway to greet students and support a safe, positive start to the day, while also providing flexible learning spaces for students inside the classroom. They can be easily moved and used for small groups, collaboration, independent work, and more! Today only, the Donors Choose Community is boosting every contribution by 50%! That means every donation made today will go even further toward helping us reach our goal. If you are able, we would greatly appreciate you sharing our project with your families, friends, local businesses, and anyone who may be interested in supporting our students. Even a small contribution can make a big difference! Link to the Donors Choose Project: https://www.donorschoose.org/sl/Gz1WCLgTPF Thank you so much for supporting our Trailblazer Family!

Friday, August 14th, will be the last day that families walk students to class. Beginning Monday, our students will practice an important part of their school routine—independently making their way to class safely and confidently.
This transition helps our students:
✨ Build independence and responsibility
✨ Strengthen confidence in navigating our school
✨ Practice following routines and safety expectations
✨ Begin each day ready to learn and grow
We know this is a change, but it’s an exciting opportunity for our Trailblazers to show what they can do! 💙
Thank you, families, for partnering with us as we prioritize both the independence of our students and the safety and security of our school. Together, we’re Blazing a Trail of Excellence! 🐎💙
