🌊 8th Grade Takes On Big Kahuna's! ☀️
What a perfect way to celebrate the end of the year! Our 8th graders made a huge splash at Big Kahuna’s Water Park for their class trip, and a fantastic time was truly had by all.
From catching waves on the FlowRider and shooting hoops in the pool, to drifting down the lazy river and soaking up the sun poolside, the day was packed with smiles, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
A massive shoutout to our incredible students—not only did they have an absolute blast, but they were also incredibly well-behaved, representing our school beautifully all day long. Mother Nature definitely smiled on us too, serving up the most perfect, beautiful sunny weather we could have asked for.
