It’s raining pumpkins! Many thanks to Stafford F&R for coming out and helping our 3rd graders test their engineering designs by dropping their pumpkins from 100ft! Our students enjoyed every minute! Our 3rd grade team ROCKS!

The national teacher shortage is a crisis and we need support to address this challenge!
At the start of this school year, @SCPSchools had 111 teacher vacancies. @ThomasTaylorEdD said his team cut that number in half, but needs remain in hard-to-staff areas like special ed, math, and social work. We spoke to Dr. Taylor about staffing challenges at our Annual Meeting.
