The upcoming holiday season is filled with excitement, but it can also be a time when some of our families need a little extra support. 💛 🎙 In our newest episode of Amplified, we sit down with Lisa Kerry, one of our Family & Community Engagement (FACE) specialists and Nischelle Buffalow from Buffalow Family and Friends to talk about partnership, compassion, and how our community works together to make sure no one feels alone this season. 🎧 Hear the stories, learn how to access support, and discover ways to get involved at cpschools.com/amplified or wherever you get your podcasts. #EmpowerCPS #CPSCelebrates
Our preschoolers got hands-on (and a little messy!) exploring the inside of a pumpkin today! 🎃🤚 They scooped, squished, and discovered all the slimy seeds and stringy insides while using their senses to explore. 🍂 It was the perfect mix of science, fun, and fall! 🍁💛
Our annual Character Parade on October 31st was a storybook come to life! 📚✨ Students and staff dressed up as their favorite book characters and proudly marched through the halls, showing off their creativity and love for reading. 💫 From superheroes to storybook classics, it was a magical way to celebrate imagination and literacy! 🎭❤️
📣 Reminder, Falcon families! There will be no school for students tomorrow, Tuesday, November 4, due to a Teacher Work Day. 💙✏️

Our Lost and Found is bursting at the seams! 🎒🧥🥤 From lonely hoodies to runaway water bottles, there’s a whole crew of missing items waiting to go home! 😄 Stop by soon to help them find their way back home!
Double buns, double the fun! 🎀✨ Some of our kindergarten crew was serving up the sweetest (and spookiest!) matching hair vibes yesterday. We can’t handle all this cuteness! 😍🎃
Our 2nd graders had a “matter” of fun in science today! 🧪✨ They explored solids, liquids, and gases through hands-on experiments and some seriously curious thinking. Science sure is no small matter in 2nd grade! 💡🔬💧
Ms. Jackson’s class was pretty in pink today for Spirit Day! 💕💖 We loved seeing all the bright shades of pink shining throughout the school today!
It took just over 5 weeks, but our 5th graders proved it — a salt and water solution can be separated through evaporation! 🌞💧 No heat needed, just patience and science in action on our classroom shelf! 🧂🔬
Our preschoolers had a colorful day of learning! 🌈✨ They practiced sorting objects by color and were so proud of their rainbow collections. It may look like play, but they were using early math skills—categorizing, matching, and noticing patterns. 🎨🧠
💗 Don’t forget — tomorrow is Wear Pink Day! 💗
Show your school spirit and support by rocking your favorite pink outfits! Let’s fill the halls with pink pride! 💕👚🎀
Our 1st graders put their engineering skills to the test today in science! 🏗️✨ They designed, built, and tested their own structures—problem-solving, adjusting, and cheering each other on along the way. We love seeing their curiosity and creativity soar! 💙
🎃👻 Hallopalooza was a spooktacular success! Thank you to all our families, volunteers, and staff who joined in for a night of treats, giggles, and ghoulish fun. We had a fang-tastic time and couldn’t have done it without you! 🧙♀️🍬🕸️
