Information from the April 5, 2024 4:00 p.m. all-call:
Good afternoon! This is just a reminder that there will be no school on Monday, April 8 due to the solar eclipse. Have a nice weekend!
Information from the April 2, 2024 10:15 a.m. all-call:
Good morning! Our district will be dismissing two hours early today, April 2, 2024. Morning preschool students will ride the bus home on the elementary route, which will begin at approximately 1:30. There will be no afternoon preschool.
If a parent or guardian chooses to sign their child out early from school, it will be excused.
We were happy to welcome our students back after spring break and provide breakfast and lunch to them. 😊 To ensure a safe trip home though, we are dismissing early. Based on the radar, we expect this will provide a good window of opportunity for safe travel. Note that if the weather is unsafe for travel, we will hold students who walk and ride a bus in our care. Should that need to occur, we will communicate the information to parents and guardians.
Please make sure that you plan for your child to arrive home early today. Also, please be aware that it may be difficult to reach us by phone as early dismissals are always busy. Stay safe, everyone!

Mrs. Eikenberry's Prodigy students used teamwork skills for a cup stacking challenge, however, the team leader could only use their voice to help their team.
The students in Mrs. Penwell and Mrs. Raike’s classes were busy writing “Where I’m From” poetry over the past three days. Students reflected on childhood memories that helped identify who they are as a person. They added in sensory details and figurative language to enhance imagery and depth of the poem. After using peer feedback to make any adjustments, every student enjoyed reciting their poem. We enjoyed all of the poems!
Students in Mrs. Molloy's science classes made structures to see if they could withstand a simulated earthquake.
