Is there a doctor in the house? Courtney Walker, the fourth-grade teacher at Apple Glen Elementary, transformed her classroom into the operating room today as part of a study on polio. Students used their math skills to help save their patients and studied the different components that make up our blood.
Apple Glen is the only visible learning school in Arkansas, allowing students to take charge of their own learning. Part of today's operation is to examine a skill and determine its level of mastery or success. Once students are able to determine that, they can figure out what's missing and correct their own work. Get these kids their white coats! #whereexcellencelives
Today was our first PBS school wide event - a popsicle party & extra recess! Students enjoyed this beautiful day eating their popsicles and playing on our playground!

Gotta love a school supply donation drop off!!
Class is in session and our students are benefitting from the amazing members of Ledger Bentonville 📓✏️🎒
Throughout the month of August, Ledger hosted a Back to School donation drive of supplies for Apple Glen Elementary. 🍎 We appreciate the members of Ledger and their thoughtfulness for our students! 😍
Parents- In an effort to share important dates, we have created a calendar of events. We will do our best to adhere to these dates but as situations arise, we may need to make adjustments. Please consider these dates as tentative and watch for detailed information as we get closer to the event date. Some of these events are student only events, such as PBIS Rewards days, but we may request volunteers to help support the event.
Join us for the first Spirit Night of the year!
Don't forget PTO is meeting today in our new parent's room!
