Fun Fridays are BACK! Our ECE students spent some time exploring, creating, playing and enjoying time with our enrichment teachers — with some of our 6th graders joining in to help and play along, too!

We love seeing our youngest Cougars and our older students connect and have fun together. 🐾 by @thenewschoolar

Our 1st and 3rd graders were back at the NWA Championship for the Kids Confidence Club to kick off Choose Confidence! 💙⛳️

Students spent the day trying new activities with local community organizations, cheering on professional golfers, and celebrating what it means to choose confidence. We love opportunities like this that encourage our students to step outside their comfort zones, try something new, and connect with our community. So happy to be back! by @thenewschoolar

Something new is happening in Lower School! We kicked off our very first Cougar Summit—a new tradition designed to bring our K–5 students together as one community.

Each month, students will meet in mixed-grade groups led by our K–5 teachers for activities that build connection, collaboration, and social-emotional skills, while giving students the opportunity to share and celebrate what they’ve been learning in their groups. One summit down, many more to go! 🐾💙 by @thenewschoolar
