Where I’m going after 5th grade: Grand Center Arts Academy.
My favorite thing about The Biome: I like my class.
A quote from The Biome staff: “Carter and I were destined to be together. We moved to the Biome here from the same school the year that I was Carter’s first grade teacher. We always joked that he was going to be stuck with me either way. Carter and I had so much fun in first grade. No matter what subject we were doing, Carter would narrate the assignment and pretend he was on his own Youtube channel.”
