Hallway Showcase

Unless you’re a regular volunteer, you may not get to see the beautiful work our students are doing! Here is a showcase of our latest hallway displays. Students in kindergarten through third grade have studied various industries and changes over the last centuries, examining how we relate as a culture and workplace today vs. previous generations. Kindergarteners are working on fact families, and our high school hallway reminds students that the real goal of our sacred experiences is to remind ourselves that we (and everyone we meet) are reflections of God’s image.
