Watch WKRN News 2 today at 5:00 PM for a special shoutout! 💙🌀
Today, kindergarten #students at #CartwrightElementarySchool welcomed #WKRN Chief Meteorologist Danielle Breezy for a special visit to help launch their latest project-based learning experience. 🌤️🎙️
Students were presented with a driving question: “Weather shows are designed for adults. How can we help present the weather to everyone in a more kid-friendly way?”
With guidance and inspiration from the visit, students began brainstorming ideas and exploring how weather information can be shared in ways that are easy for children to understand. 🧠💡
From creative visuals to simple explanations, these young learners are designing kid-friendly weather presentations to share with others across the school community. ☁️🌈🌦️

Kindness is taking center stage at Cartwright Elementary School!🫶
In January, two #students from #CartwrightElementarySchool, along with Assistant Principal Malcom Martin, visited #WLIJ and #HopkinsFarmsBroadcasting🎙️ to discuss the school’s pursuit of a STEAM designation.
During that conversation, one #student, David Quinones, was asked, “If you could design a STEAM project to help your school or community, what would it be?” His thoughtful response: “I would do a kindness project so that everyone could learn better how to be kind to each other.” 💡
That inspiring idea sparked something special and now the school is wrapping up the year with a project-based learning project focused on kindness. 🌟
As part of the project launch, Mr. Clanton recently joined Mr. Martin and #BedfordCountySchools Director of Communications Carol Garrette in visiting 5th graders, sharing a guiding question as students brainstormed ideas for spreading kindness. 🧠🤝
We can't wait to see how these creative ideas will guide students as they put kindness into action throughout the school community! 🌈✨
