2nd grade has been learning about the Digestive System in Science and they had a special presentation by two of our parents who are Physicians at the University of Texas. During their presentation they compared human anatomy with those of other animals, showed how long the small intestine is, and had an interactive activity that demonstrated how our digestive system works! The students even got to ask them a lot of great questions.
One of the great things about our school is the family environment that is always present in our halls. We love it when our older students are involved with our younger ones! One example is when they help run our school events and guide the younger students around. Another example is when we have Reading Buddies every Friday in the Library.

Our latest bulletin boards showcase what we are reading! The bulletin board just outside the library has books being read by our Primer, Kinder, first grade, and second grade students, while the one on the wall in the stairwell shows what our older kids are reading.
Deciding that your child should make the switch to a private school is a big decision. The academic and social adjustments can affect not just your child, but your whole family. However, if you’ve weighed the options and decided that switching from public to private school is the best course of action, take comfort in knowing that private schools make it a point to help families ease into the transition.

Deciding how to help with your child’s homework is a constant struggle for most parents. You don’t want your child to constantly struggle with their homework every day, but you also know that giving them the answers is not going to help them either.
Preschool is an important part of early development for a child because it helps set a child up with the proper skills and structure to succeed throughout their education. Kirby Hall’s primer program provides an extra scaffold between the crucial Pre-K years and the kindergarten years.
