🌟 Cartwright Elementary's Amazing STEAM Finale! 🌟

What an incredible way to end the year! 🎉 Fifth graders just wrapped up an inspiring project-based learning assignment that proves kindness is the real superpower.

From creative videos 🎥 to hilarious puppet shows 🎭, heartfelt thank you cards 💌, and even pencil gifts for the whole school ✏️ — these #students showed us what it means to spread joy and encouragement!

Here's the best part: This whole amazing project idea came straight from one of #CartwrightElementarySchool's fifth graders - David Quinones! 🙌 That's the power of student voice and creativity!

Big shout-out to our STEAM stars for reminding us that the greatest innovation is kindness. You've made Cartwright Elementary brighter this year! 💚✨

A special #ThankYou to our friends at #WLIJ and #HopkinsFarmsBroadcasting who supported these efforts along the way with on-the-air highlights and broadcasts!
