"Play is the work of children. Through play, children learn to make sense of the world around them.”

PJ’s, stuffies, and fort day made for the coziest day and a perfect way to bring warmth and joy to a dreary day 🥰
Mrs. Pianoforte’s class is hard at work practicing their red words! With repetition and multisensory strategies, these young learners are building strong foundations in reading and spelling. You can always count on Mrs. Pianoforte to keep her kindergarteners engaged and excited to learn!
Preschoolers explored the wonder of nature through hands-on observation and gentle care of a butterfly. By feeding it, touching it with care, and documenting their observations with drawings and words, they connected deeply with the world around them—fostering curiosity, empathy, and respect for living things.
Hubbard alumni returned as fourth-grade students from Dater School visited for a special peer visit! Joined by Dater's counselor, Mrs. Fishman, they met with some of our third graders to answer questions and share what to expect next year. They also visited each classroom so all students had the chance to meet Mrs. Fishman and the fourth grade students. What a great way to ease nerves, spark excitement, and celebrate the strong connection between our schools! 🐏
Math time in K-Coleman means hands-on learning, big thinking, and lots of smiles as our kindergarteners build foundational number sense!
Our Early Explorer students are beaming with pride as they show off their design process! 💡
A fourth grader from Dater visited Hubbard yesterday and was beaming with joy as he reunited with his former second grade teacher—a heartwarming reminder that the connections made at Hubbard stay with our students long after they leave 💙💛
Enjoy the bright smiles of our preschoolers on this gloomy day! Whether it’s sand play or pretending together, their joy brings sunshine to our Hubbard halls.
Mrs. Finnegan’s class took ownership of their learning in the best way! After enjoying math problems of the day that featured their classmates’ names, students were inspired to write their own short stories to be turned into future math problems. What a fun and engaging way to kick off math each day—building excitement, ownership, and real-life connections!
Students in 3-Lajam are hard at work on their Profile Projects! Some groups even created graphs to share their findings—making real-world connections to their recent math unit on data and graphing. We love seeing our third graders apply their learning in meaningful ways!
Time flies when you’re a Ram! Two Ramsey High School seniors stopped by to help at Spring Fest and ran into a familiar face—Mrs. Pina, former Hubbard principal and now Director of Elementary Education. From elementary to graduation, moments like this remind us of the lasting impact educators have on their students—and the special journey that begins right here at Hubbard School.
(Part three) A huge thank you to our incredible PTO and volunteers for making this event so special. Spring Fest 2025 is one we won’t forget! Go Rams!! 💙💛🌷
(Part two) From delicious treats and exciting games to warm reunions and big smiles, the day was filled with the kind of moments that make Hubbard feel like home.
(Part 1) What a perfect day! Spring Fest brought together our incredible Hubbard community—families, staff, and students—for an afternoon of fun, connection, and smiles.
We love how Spring Fest brought us all together—former students, current students, and future students. Hubbard is, and will always be, home. 💙💛
Our third graders got a special “early look” at Spring Fest during the end of the school day! Thank you to our amazing PTO for giving them this fun opportunity to explore and celebrate together before the big event kicked off!
Just a friendly reminder—Hubbard’s Spring Fest is tomorrow, Tuesday, May 20! We can’t wait to see you there from 3:15–6:00 PM on the front field. It’s going to be an afternoon full of fun and community! 🎟️💙💛
One third grader’s Profile Project involves shadowing Mrs. Reid’s preschool class to observe how the environment supports learning. From real and faux plants to natural materials and earthy tones like brown, green, and blue, students noticed how every element is intentionally chosen. Students even observed how different lighting creates shadows and perspective—just like in nature—offering calm, curiosity, and connection in the classroom. What a beautiful way to connect the outside world to the inside world!
