ππ What a fantastic day of learning and fun at Peter Piper Pizza for our Huachuca Mountain 1st graders! ππ
Our young learners embarked on an exciting field trip where they delved into the world of fractions through the medium of delicious pizzas! π They explored colors, shapes, and even got hands-on experience crafting their very own pizzas, which were baked to perfection while they continued their educational journey.
With satisfied tummies and hearts full of joy, they also got to enjoy some well-deserved playtime with tokens at the arcade games. πΉοΈ A huge thank you to Peter Piper Pizza for providing such a memorable experience for our students! π #PizzaAndLearning #FunFieldTrips #HuachucaMountainExplorers

Good morning. Huachuca Mountain is partnering with the Arizona Science Center to provide fun, engaging activities for students while teachers receive training to integrate STEM activities in their classrooms. The last session was a tremendous success, but we need your help. If you are a certified parent volunteer, would you consider volunteering to help supervise students on May 13th? The next science session will be a lot of fun, but we need a few more adult helpers to ensure our students engage in the best way with the science center staff!
