Sliding into summer!🦓🌊 #cpszebrapride






🎓🦓 Kindergarten Promotion Day was full of heart and hope!
Our littlest Zebras sang, smiled, and shined as they wrapped up a year of growth, laughter, and learning. Watching them take the stage, some with proud grins, others with wobbly waves, reminded us how much they’ve grown.
We couldn’t be prouder of this group. First grade, get ready, these kiddos are on their way!
#CPSZEBRAPRIDE






Heck of a day at summer league for volleyball!
They went 3-1 overall this week and are looking for 4 more next week!

🔍🗺️ Ms. Reyes' class took on South America in an escape room-style challenge! To explore the continent’s physical and human geography, students searched for clues hidden in readings and cracked puzzles using morse code, cryptographs, and more.
Looks like we’ve got some real “escape artists” in the making! 🧠💡
