WHAT'S BRUIN...
Pre-K and the Maker Space Classroom
Mrs. Baldock or Mrs. Kenyon take our Pre-K students weekly to the Maker Space Classroom, and had this to say: "During enrichment in the Maker Space Classroom, we first listen to a story. Afterwards, we work together to build all sorts of things using manipulatives such as blocks, linking cubes, pattern blocks, and plastic cups. We are the architects, engineers, technicians, and mediators of the future! We love our new STEAM classroom! Thank you to all the parents who worked so hard to make it happen!"
Look - it's as tall as me!

TEACHER FEATURE
Cheryl D'Ostrophe - PreK3
She enjoys reading, gardening, relaxing on her patio, and walking her dog “Buddy” along the shores of Lake Ray Hubbard while taking in the beautiful sunsets!
“I’ve had the pleasure of working here at SBS for 17 years. It’s very exciting to take part in the beginning of a child’s educational journey! I enjoy providing the children with age-appropriate, multi-sensory experiences to help them develop academically, socially, creatively, emotionally, and spiritually. I feel blessed to be a part of this wonderful school community!”
FUN FACTS:
What is your dream vacation? And who would you take with you?
My dream vacation would be a trip to Hawaii with my children.
What famous person would you like to meet some day?
I would like to meet Michelle Obama. I think she's an inspiration. She's a good role model, she carries herself with grace, and she cares a great deal about others and making their lives better.
