🎬 BUILDINGS WITH BLANCHARD: We recently visited Shaull Elementary School to see what was brewing during Teacher Appreciation Week! ☕
Students in Mr. Barrick’s Helpful 2 Others (H2O) Club turned Teacher Appreciation Week into a campus-wide coffeehouse, serving up smiles one carefully crafted cup at a time. Acting as “baristas with a purpose,” students visited teachers across the building to express gratitude, introduce themselves with confidence, and guide staff through personalized coffee and snack orders, asking thoughtful questions, remembering preferences, and ensuring each drink matched the moment.
Superintendent Blanchard joined the H2O crew, stepping into the role of “assistant barista” as he worked alongside students to craft and deliver orders, helping highlight the learning and connection happening throughout the building. 🫶
Watch the video to see the H2O Club at work. 🦅

🎬 BUILDINGS WITH BLANCHARD: Yesterday, we visited Eagle View Middle School's 7th-grade FCS class for a delicious breakfast lab. 🍳
Students in Ms. Morret’s class tested their breakfast-making skills by preparing a “Jiffy Breakfast” (egg in a mug) in the microwave while learning kitchen safety and sanitation. They demonstrated key POE skills, including communication and collaboration, as well as responsibility through the safe handling of ingredients, proper use of equipment, and maintaining a clean workspace.
Superintendent Blanchard joined the class and cooked alongside students, making his own Jiffy Breakfast. The class wrapped up by enjoying breakfast together and reflecting on the cooking process.
