Today we celebrate our school librarian, Mrs. Hill, who inspires us with her love of reading. She is one of the first warm, welcoming faces our students see each morning in the drop-off line, setting the tone for a great day. From her creative and eye-catching bulletin boards to the exciting author visits she plans each year, Mrs. Hill brings books to life in so many ways. She also works behind the scenes coordinating PARS and constantly finding new ways to make reading fun and engaging for all. We are so grateful for the joy, creativity, and passion she brings to our school. Happy Librarian Appreciation Day!

We are capping off our week of appreciation by honoring the hearts of our hallways: our Essential Support Aides.

Whether it’s a 🩺 Health Aide offering a gentle word and a steady hand during a tough moment, or an 🤝 Instructional Aide witnessing the exact second an academic breakthrough happens these individuals don't just "help." They change the entire trajectory of a student’s day.

To our team: You see the small victories that others might miss, and you provide the quiet strength our students lean on. We are so incredibly lucky to have you at South Bloomfield! ❤️

Our class buddies came to visit and students worked together to sort, compare, and explore. They discovered how we can be alike in some ways and different in others. 🌈🥣

In STEM class, our 2nd and 3rd graders explored the concept of drag by designing and testing their very own peep parachutes! Using the engineering design process, students planned, built, and improved their parachutes with one goal in mind- keeping their peep safe during a drop from the top of the playground equipment. It was amazing to see their creativity, problem-solving and teamwork in action! 🧺🪂🐥

Today, we are celebrating our Special Education Aides. ❤️

These incredible educators are the masters of the "unseen" work. They see the frustration before it becomes a tear, celebrate the tiny victories that others might miss, and provide the steady hand our students lean on every single day.

To our South Bloomfield team: You don’t just modify activities; you build confidence. You don’t just provide sensory breaks; you provide a safe harbor. Thank you for choosing to lead with your hearts. You are changing lives, one breakthrough at a time.

Kicking off Paraprofessional-Appreciation Week by celebrating our Mid-Day Magic Makers! 🏃‍♂️💨🍱

From officiating high-stakes kickball games and comforting scraped knees on the playground to mastering the "lost lunchbox" and opening those tricky milk cartons, these heroes do it all. Whether they are braving the elements outside or managing the lunchtime hustle with incredible patience, they ensure our students are safe, fueled up, and ready to learn.

We see you out there in the wind, rain, and sun, and we see you making sure every student has a seat and a friend in the lunchroom. Thank you for being the heart of the school day!

TVWMS band members visited our 5th graders to share the many instruments they can choose from when they reach middle school. Our students loved hearing the different sounds and learning about the opportunities that await them in band. Even better, many of the musicians visiting were former students from our building! It was wonderful to see them back, helping teach and inspire the next group of future band members. We loved having you back! 🎺🥁🎷
