Vaccines are truly one of the most incredible things in all of human history. We founds ways to literally defeat communicable deadly diseases at almost no cost and at no harm to ourselves.

Be SMART was launched to raise awareness that secure gun storage—storing guns locked, unloaded and separate from ammunition—can save lives. It emphasizes that it’s an adult’s responsibility to keep kids from accessing guns, and that every adult can play a role in keeping kids and communities safer.

Fifth graders had a blast this week coding Finch robots to joust. They had to use forks, straws & tape to make a tool that would knock a ping pong ball off of a cup. Lots of problem solving, creativity & collaboration. #TLSky #STEM #schoollibrary
