Yesterday, Mrs. Kennedy’s 3rd grade class took a hands-on approach to learning about Monarch butterflies by planting milkweed seeds outside! 🌱🦋 The students, who are currently observing Monarch caterpillars in their classroom, learned that these beautiful butterflies are almost endangered and only lay their eggs on milkweed. Eager to make a difference, they wrote to DBAIC Principal, Mr. Isselmann, requesting permission to plant milkweed at the school. This initiative will provide a crucial food source and breeding ground for the Monarchs. We hope that next year, the students will see the fruits of their efforts and witness the Monarchs thriving! 🌼🦋 #ButterflyConservation #HandsOnLearning #BooneProud

📚🚨 School Attendance Matters! 🚨📚 Did you know? 🤔 Regular attendance not only helps students stay on track with their learning, but it also... - Develops strong habits for future success 🎓 - Helps build friendships and social skills 🤝 - Ensures your child doesn’t miss out on critical learning 📖 Every school day counts, and every absence, excused or unexcused, can impact a student's ability to learn and grow. Your involvement makes a big difference! Let’s work together to support our students and make every school day a success. #AttendanceMatters #BooneProud #EducationMatters #BooneProud
