Answers can come to life!

In the McLaughlin Science classroom, our students didn't just learn about volcanoes—they put their predictions to the test!

After making their predictions about what would happen, how big the eruption would be, and how the lava would move, it was time to see what happened when their answers came to life. 🔬🌋

A little baking soda, a little vinegar, and a whole lot of excitement made for a hands-on science lesson that was anything but ordinary!

Our “Dress in the Color of your Favorite Apple” theme took a different turn in the McDonough classroom! Students chose an apple that many of us had never heard of—the Black Diamond apple.

And while its dark color may be unusual, its taste is said to be sweet, with hints of honey. But don’t rush out to buy one just yet—Black Diamond apples can be very pricey!

We love when a classroom lesson gives us something new to learn—and maybe a new apple to add to our must-try list!

Fall is in the air at Pace School!

Our Fall Dress Days are happening each Friday, giving students and staff a chance to have some fun and show their seasonal spirit. 🍁

And during Bullying Prevention Month, we’ll celebrate with a special Spirit Week filled with fun themes that encourage kindness, inclusion, and connection.

From cozy fall looks to showing our Pace pride, it’s all about having fun, spreading kindness, and creating a warm, welcoming school community where everyone belongs.

Check out the calendar for all the themes and join in the fun! , , ,

Learning at Every Station!

The students in the Templer classroom were busy building their English Language Arts skills through a variety of hands-on learning stations! From practicing spelling words and listening to stories to identify story elements and details, each activity offered a different way to learn and engage.

And students had fun with the challenge of a memory game that encouraged recall, recognition, and focus.

At Pace, learning can take many forms—and every station is another opportunity to grow, practice, and succeed! 💙 , ,

Celebrate the artists and makers in the comments.

Today, we revealed the full picture. Created through a year of exploration, design, making, collaboration, and installation, this mural is a permanent celebration of the Pace School community. Each piece carries its own shape, texture, color, and story. Together, they form something no single piece could create alone. To every student, artist, educator, staff member, family member, and partner who helped make this possible: thank you. Welcome to our newest work of community art.

Tomorrow, we reveal the full picture. Every handmade tile, every student choice, every collaborative decision, and every hour of fabrication and installation has led to this moment. ,

Our Pace School cheerleaders kicked off the year with a little team-building fun—and a twist on a familiar game!

They played Heads, Shoulders, Knees & Toes, with a twist of a surprise pom pom . The first cheerleader to grab it gets the cheer! 📣

A fun way to build teamwork, focus, quick reactions—and, of course, a little friendly competition—as our cheerleaders get ready for another great year! Go Pace! 💙 , ,

Six days until the full picture is revealed.

The mural is no longer an idea on paper or a panel on a table. It is becoming part of the building—visible, dimensional, and grounded in the place it was created to serve. ,
