Ms. Montgomery's Kindergarten class was filled with excitement today as they welcomed a special Mystery Reader! Laney, a fourth grader who once sat in their seats, returned to share "How to Catch Santa" with her former teacher and the class, which included her little sister, Georgia. Witnessing our students grow and blossom #FromRootsToBloom is one of the things that makes teaching at York Prep so meaningful!

We all know about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, but have you heard about the YPA Elementary Thanksgiving Parade? Our 4th graders created original cardboard designs and paraded them down the halls, bringing excitement and smiles to our students. And of course, no Thanksgiving parade would be complete without a special visit from Santa!

In Pathways Exploration, students dedicated their efforts to completing various service projects.

In STEAM Exploration, students had a fantastic time learning design skills using a CAD program. They got creative and crafted their very own keychain designs, which they then brought to life using York Prep's new Bambu Lab 3D Printers. The students were amazed to see their ideas turn into real, tangible creations!

In Art Exploration, students learned about printmaking! They created original designs to print using Styrofoam, explored mono prints with pizza pans, made tin foil transfer prints, and used screen printing to create their own t-shirts. Great job students!
