Our Polaris 6th graders kicked off middle school with an early field trip to Red Rocks Park! Students explored forest trails, skipped stones along the lakeshore, and worked together on problem-solving challenges that built teamwork and new friendships. A lucky fossil discovery and plenty of laughter made the morning unforgettable. What a beautiful way to begin their middle school journey!
