📚🏐 Learning in Action! 🎉✨ Today, our 6th graders hit the court to challenge the 7th and 8th-grade PE class in a game of dodgeball—but with a twist! 🧮 While they dodged, ducked, and threw, they also worked on their math skills, studying ratios in action.📏

🎉✨ Get ready for some festive fun! Check out the December Dress-Up Days and join in the holiday spirit! 🎄👗🧣

Burke Art 2 students created portraits for a nonprofit organization called The Memory Project. Their mission is to connect youth around the world through art to help build cultural understanding and international kindness. The Memory Project gets its name from its first intention, which is to provide handmade, heartfelt portraits as special memories to children in orphanages. They are using art to reach a distant destination: a kinder world in which all youth see themselves in one another regardless of differences in their appearance, culture, religion, or circumstances. The portraits made here in Burke will be sent to children in India.
