🤩 JUST IN TIME: The 67th (insert hand gesture) day of school was last week before Thanksgiving break, and of course, everyone was having some 6-7 fun (insert hand gesture).

Now the calendar basically said, "count on me," and hit us with the December 6-7 (insert hand gesture) combo for this weekend. Honestly, this weekend is already looking 6/7 stars (insert hand gesture). ⭐

It's like the universe is telling us to hit that 6-7 (insert hand gesture) again, because when the dates line up this perfectly, you've got to bring all of the 6-7 (insert hand gesture) energy. 😆

Have a great weekend, Eagles! 🦅

🎃 PUMPKIN SCIENCE: Last week, Hampden Elementary School's 4th graders explored the science behind pumpkins! Working in small groups with the help of parent volunteers, students investigated questions like: Do pumpkins float or sink? How big is their “equator”? How many seeds are inside?

After collecting and recording their data, each class compared results and discussed what they learned. This hands-on experiment is a favorite Hampden tradition, combining teamwork, curiosity, and lots of fun. 😎
