🎨 Artistic Achievements
Young artists at Matunuck Elementary have been bringing their imaginations to life through a captivating monster-themed art project. Using ink and watercolor, our elementary students created an array of expressive creatures that showcase both their creativity and artistic skills. From intimidating to endearing, each monster drawing tells its own unique story through vibrant colors and emotional expressions.
📚 RICAS Testing Success
Meanwhile, our third, fourth, and fifth graders have been tackling their RICAS assessments in ELA and Mathematics. What sets Matunuck Elementary apart is how we've transformed these testing periods into a community-building experience. The school hallways are adorned with encouraging messages written on stars by students from other grades, creating an atmosphere of support and unity during these challenging assessments.
