Pre-K Roots...Sky High Dreams

Deep preschool roots reach down to help young dreamers stand,
Unlocking worlds of wonder through a toy in their hand.
The play and curiosity that start right here today
Will carry them to sky-high dreams that lead the future's way.

We are excited to share that Lexington CUSD7 has received a grant from the Illinois Retired Teachers Association Foundation (IRTAF) to expand hands-on STEM learning for our students! Grant funds will purchase Cubelets robotics kits and math lockboxes, giving students more opportunities to build, experiment, solve puzzles, collaborate, and strengthen critical-thinking skills during SMART Summer Camp and throughout the school year. Thank you, IRTAF, for investing in our students and helping us make learning hands-on, engaging, and fun! 🤖🔐💜
