Earlier this week, Stanton’s rock band Blue Horizon took the stage alongside other bands from around the city.

So many opportunities to showcase the amazing talent at Stanton!

Stanton is alive with the sound of music! With eight (!!) concerts happening now, Stanton’s singers and musicians (and Mrs. Nardone!) are super busy sharing their talents.

🎶 Today was the Spring show for Kindergarten, First, and Second grades. 🎶

See rescheduled date!

📕 Every year, Ms. Kraus’ third graders end the year with a novel study of the book Front Desk by Kelly Yang. It’s the first in a six book series and the students usually love this book and then continue reading the series on their own. Ms. Kraus tapped the Stanton Community Partners Mini Grant to get copies of Front Desk for everyone, plus sets of chapter books. 📚

📚 Thank you, Ms. Kraus, for this “Reading Refresh” for our Stanton readers! 📖

Today’s Little Friends meet up is postponed due to weather! 🌧️ 🌧️ Stay tuned for a new date.

Our Stanton school community is so lucky to have teachers who donate their creativity, talents, and time to help raise money for our students through the Spring Into the Arts auction! 💙

A huge thank you to Mrs. Nardone for donating a special Choice Activity Class experience at SITA. Suzy’s class enjoyed a fun-filled session featuring a Hamilton boomwhacker activity and lots of percussion instrument exploration! 🎶🥁

These one-of-a-kind teacher experiences make our auction so special, and every dollar raised goes right back to supporting our school community. Thank you to all of the teachers who helped make it a success!

Kindergarten Open House at EM Stanton school, 17th & Christian!!

We hope it was a wonderful Mother’s Day to all of the incredible moms, grandmoms, aunties, caregivers, and special women in our Stanton community 💐

Kindergarten’s annual Muffins & Memories event was a beautiful morning filled with breakfast, smiles, and appreciation for the women who mean so much to our students.

A huge thank you to our amazing community for the donation dollars that make events like this possible — and to Mrs. Yocum and Mrs. B for securing the mini grant and organizing such a meaningful celebration for our families.

Stanton Community Partners was proud to help fund this tradition and celebrate the incredible people who help our students grow every day 💛
