Our first grade students had an AMAZING time on their zoo field trip! From the moment they arrived, they were curious, engaged, and full of excitement as they explored and learned about animals from around the world.
We were so proud of how well they represented Eakin—their behavior, kindness, and enthusiasm made the day even more special. They asked great questions, followed expectations, and truly made the most of this fun field trip! .
Way to go, first grade! 💙💚
