Dolphin Terrace is keeping the celebration going for the Month of the Military Child with a fun Dress-Up Week! 💜

We’re proud to support our military children and families, especially in elementary school, where strong friendships and a sense of belonging matter so much. Military connected students often face big challenges like moving to new places and missing loved ones during deployments. By celebrating them, we help them feel welcomed, valued, and part of a caring community.

Join the fun, dress up, and help us show our support! 💜

At Dolphin Terrace, our Kinder students learn in the most exciting ways! They hopped on their bikes and scooters for a fun, hands-on adventure that brought learning to life.

As they rode, they explored important skills from our TEKS in a playful way. In Math, students counted laps, compared distances, and talked about speed (fast vs. slow). In Science, they discovered how things move, noticing how pushing the pedals or the ground makes their bikes and scooters go, and how different surfaces can change their ride. In Reading, they followed directions, recognized safety signs, and used new vocabulary to describe their experiences.

Learning has never been this fun, our young riders are building skills while on the move! 🚲✨ #YsletaISD #YISD
