From lab coats to lagoons! Our 5th graders became marine scientists for the day, dissecting balloon “fish” to learn how ORCA researchers monitor the Indian River Lagoon’s health. 🧪🐟

Ms. Stone's and Ms. Woodson’s classes have been learning about community helpers and fire prevention. Today, Station 13 of the VBFD brought the lesson to life with a fire engine visit! Afterward, students built their own “fires” and practiced putting them out during an interactive activity. We’re so thankful for Station 13 for taking the time to visit! 🚒🔥👏
