Green Acres Middle School took learning to new heights this week! 🚀✨
Our scholars had an unforgettable experience at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center as part of our Intercession week, and what a powerful way to end it! From exploring real rockets and space artifacts to diving into hands-on STEM activities, our students didn’t just learn about science. They experienced it!
Moments like these spark curiosity, fuel big dreams, and remind our students that the sky is NOT the limit. 🌎🚀
We are so proud of our Green Acres scholars for representing us so well and embracing every opportunity to grow. Intercession was truly out of this world! 💚✨
📣Did you know⁉️ 👀
Academic success is strengthened by Social Emotional Learning (SEL) because students who manage emotions, build relationships, and make responsible decisions are better able to focus, persevere, and fully engage in learning.
We’re proud to share that during Intercession our students participated in the SEL through Theatre program sponsored by Red Mountain Theatre!🎭
🎬 Through this SEL-focused theatre experience, our students had the chance to:
✨ Build confidence and social skills
✨ Practice creative expression and collaboration
✨ Engage in meaningful learning through the arts
We are so proud of their hard work, curiosity, and courage! 🌟

From powerful performances to inspiring reflections, the gym was filled with pride, unity, and Black excellence. Our students reminded us all that being bold, brilliant, and beautifully Black is something to honor every single day.
Thank you to our staff, families, and community for supporting our Mustangs as they continue to lead with pride and purpose.
