- How Our School Responded to COVID-19 and Thrived in 2020:
  
  Technology – During the lockdown of spring 2020, we quickly provided tools for remote learning, including Chromebooks and iPads to many of our students. When students at other schools struggled, the students at our school excelled.
  
  Servant Leadership – Our teachers believed students and families were their #1 priority throughout the pandemic, making sure each student received classwork and support in the most challenging of circumstances.
  
  Safe Classroom Learning – We all know that young students learn better in a classroom with their peers. Because of our impressive student-to-teacher ratio, our spacious classrooms allowed us to bring back all students for full 5-day in-person learning.
