What a week at City View Elementary! 💙🤍 It was a busy week, but one full of fun, learning, and appreciation! From the STEM Mobile Lab packed with hands-on learning, to celebrating our amazing staff, the Big Kahuna Bus ride, Science Fair & STEM Night, and wrapping it all up with an outstanding 3rd Grade Musical — our Mustangs showed up in a big way. On top of all that, we were proud to spread some extra joy by purchasing Christmas gifts for CASA children, showing what it truly means to serve others. So proud of our students, staff, and families for making it such a memorable week. This is what a strong school community looks like. One HERD! 🐎
