As we wrap up the school year and celebrate 4th grade’s final days at East, our counseling classes took time last week to reflect on all the emotions that come with this season of change—excitement, pride, nerves, gratitude, and everything in between. Students shared memories, celebrated friendships, and looked back on the moments that made their time within these walls so special.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to our Kindergarten through 4th grade teachers! 🍎✏️

Right before spring break, Lenna cashed in her PTO Auction win for “Sodie from Rhodie” with Mr. Rayburn! She and four friends enjoyed a sunny walk to Rhodes, grabbed a soda, and soaked up some beautiful weather together. Smiles, sunshine, and sweet treats—what a perfect combo! ☀️
Right before spring break, Ava had a blast using her PTO Auction win! She invited a couple of friends to join her for a special Paint Party with Mrs. Riedel. From colorful creations to lots of laughter, it was a fun-filled time of creativity and friendship. We love seeing these special experiences come to life!
