K.C. Ling -

It’s one of our favorite times of the year… the 2nd Grade ABC Countdown to the end of the school year! 🎉 On Friday, our they celebrated the letter C by getting creative and “Chalking the Walk” 🖍️☀️ The sidewalks were filled with colorful designs, kind messages, and lots of smiles!

We can’t wait to see all the fun as they continue counting down the alphabet to the end of the school year! 💙

🎓✨ Big congratulations to Mrs. Wilson and Ms. Walker! ✨🎓 We are so proud to celebrate these two amazing educators on earning their Master’s degrees from SVSU this weekend! Your hard work, dedication, and commitment to growing as educators truly inspire our entire school community. 💙 As Dr. Seuss reminds us in Oh, the Places You’ll Go!: "You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose." Mrs. Wilson and Ms. Walker, your journey is a beautiful example of perseverance and passion. Our Huskies are so lucky to learn from you each day! 🐾 #Huskies #BetterTogether #Congratulations

Our students soaked up every minute of fresh air, sunshine, and laughter out on the playground recently. From games with friends to exploring the equipment and simply enjoying being outside together, recess was full of energy and smiles.

Days like this are a wonderful reminder of how much learning and growing happens beyond the classroom walls. We’re definitely looking forward to more warmer recess days ahead as spring continues to bloom! 🌼

Today we celebrate our incredible lunch heroes: Ms. Liz, Ms. Alesha, and Ms. Terry! 🍎

Behind every tray served is a whole lot of heart. These amazing women do so much more than prepare meals. They greet our students with smiles, offer kind words, and make sure every Huskie is nourished, cared for, and ready to learn.

Their hard work often happens behind the scenes, but the impact they make is felt in every classroom, every day. We are so grateful for the love, dedication, and energy they pour into our school community.

Thank you for keeping our Huskies fueled and thriving. You truly make a difference! 🐾

Today we celebrate our very own Mr. Snider for School Principal’s Day! Seeing his elementary school photo next to who he is today is a powerful reminder that every big dream starts right where our students are now - sitting in classrooms, learning, growing, and discovering who they’re meant to be.

Our marquee says it best: “Learning Today. Leading Tomorrow.” And Mr. Snider is living proof of that message every single day. From a young learner to an inspiring leader, he shows our Huskies what’s possible with hard work, heart, and a commitment to others.

Thank you, Mr. Snider, for leading with purpose, supporting our students and staff, and making our school an incredible place to learn and grow. 🐾

There’s just something special about learning new things outside the classroom. Our 2nd graders in Ms. Little’s class spent part of recess today learning how to make daisy chains—and they absolutely loved it! From carefully picking the perfect flowers to helping each other string them together, this was teamwork, creativity, and a little bit of springtime magic all in one 💛 Sometimes the best lessons happen in the simplest moments.

It was a great day at K.C. Ling Elementary as we wrapped up our Acceptance Month dress-up days with Jersey Day!

Jerseys represent being part of a team, and that’s exactly what we are here at Ling. Whether in the classroom, on the playground, or throughout our school, we show up for one another, support each other, and work together toward a common goal.

Our students and staff did an amazing job showing their team spirit all month, reminding us all that when we work together, we are stronger. 💪

Mrs. Jennings’ students have been hard at work collaborating and thinking critically as they sort figures and explore equal vs. unequal parts! 👏

Through teamwork and hands-on learning, these Huskies are building strong math skills and learning how to support one another along the way. We love seeing their problem-solving minds in action! 🧠

Recess = GAME ON! Ms. Hollingsworth took things to the next level at recess, challenging our 4th graders to a few rounds of HORSE, and let’s just say, the competition was fierce and the shots were impressive! 🏀 From trick shots to buzzer-beaters (okay… maybe recess bell-beaters 😄), there was no shortage of laughs and school spirit.

Nothing beats seeing our students and staff connecting, having fun, and making memories together!

Mrs. Green’s 3rd graders have been busy diving into research as they gather information for their opinion papers. From asking thoughtful questions to exploring different sources, these students are building strong ideas and learning how to support them with evidence.

We love seeing their curiosity, focus, and determination shine through as they prepare to share their voices in writing. Keep up the great work, 3rd grade!

Have a great weekend, Huskies!

Mrs. Siler’s 1st graders have been hard at work in art class, creating their own colorful Heart Murals inspired by artist Chris Uphues. From sharing ideas to helping one another bring their visions to life, these young artists showed incredible creativity and outstanding teamwork every step of the way! 🎨

We love seeing our students collaborate, encourage each other, and take pride in their masterpieces. Way to go, 1st grade!
