A new name calls for a celebration and this morning, Desert Bloom Elementary School celebrated its new chapter with plenty of superhero spirit!
Kids were blooming with excitement as students, families, teachers, staff, Principal Covarrubia, district leaders and the LCPS Board of Education gathered to celebrate their school’s new name: Desert Bloom Elementary School!
With the majestic Organ Mountains as its backdrop, Desert Bloom is a fitting name for a school where students are growing, learning and blooming every day.
The celebration was made even more special with visits from Wonder Woman, Batman and Tito the Coyotito!
LCPS Board of Education President Pamela Cort, a former French teacher, taught students how to say Desert Bloom in French, and students proudly chanted it together.
Superintendent Ignacio Ruiz encouraged students to always do their best, while Principal Covarrubia welcomed families and introduced student superheroes who represented the heroes they aspire to be in their school community.
Student superheroes then made a pledge to be kind, responsible and respectful, always try their best, and live by the Golden Rule: treat others the way you want to be treated.
What a wonderful way to celebrate Desert Bloom Elementary School!
