💡 Our 1st graders in Mrs. White’s and Ms. Devin’s classrooms kicked off their Junior Achievement learning yesterday — and the fun will continue through Friday! 🎉
Yesterday, students discussed what makes a community a great place to live — exploring the important things we look for when choosing a community. 🏡❤️
Today, they played a fun and interactive game all about wants vs. needs, helping them understand how people make choices and what’s most important for daily life. 💰🎲
Thank you to Junior Achievement for helping our students learn about communities, decision-making, and being smart citizens in such an engaging way! 👏✨
🎃🍂 Pauline Central turned into a Pumpkin Patch today! 🍁🧡
Our 1st graders in Mrs. Stryker/Mrs. Helmbold, Ms. Devin, and Mrs. White’s classes had so much fun picking out their very own pumpkin for a special class activity! 🎨✨
The pumpkins will decorate the classrooms for a bit, and soon students will get to take them home to share their festive creations with their families. 🏠🎃💛
We loved seeing our little pumpkins enjoy this festive fall tradition! 🎃🍂💛

We couldn’t resist sharing more amazing moments from our field trip to the Topeka Zoo! 📸💚
Our students had a blast exploring the different ecosystems — from hot deserts to lush rainforests — and seeing firsthand how animals adapt to their unique habitats. 🌵🌴🌧️
It was a perfect mix of fun, discovery, and hands-on learning — a day our 2nd graders won’t soon forget! 🐘🚌✨
🚌🌎 Field Trip Fun at the Topeka Zoo! 🐾🌿
Our Pauline Central 2nd graders had an exciting day exploring the Topeka Zoo to learn all about animals and their habitats! 🦒🐍🐧
Students discovered the answers to big questions like:
❓ Are deserts always hot?
🌾 Are grasslands just grass?
🌧️ How much rain does a rainforest really get?
Through hands-on learning and real-life encounters, students explored different ecosystems, discovered how they’re formed, and met some of the amazing animals that call each one home. 🌍💚
It was a wild day full of learning, curiosity, and fun! 🐘📚✨
