National School Librarian Day recognizes the professionals who are dedicated to helping our children find the resources they need to keep learning. Thank you to Ms. Welle and the library paraprofessionals who support our students & encourage their growth in reading!
Associate Michelle Penning celebrated her birthday by having Mrs. Curry's class make birthday kits to give to the food pantry! Each child was able to assemble a kit that included a cake mix, candy, and a bag of chips. 22 kids will be able to have a birthday cake for their birthdays! Thanks for your generosity!
Paraprofessional Appreciation Day is observed annually on the first Wednesday of April. Today we'd like to take a moment and thank ALL of our wonderful paraprofessionals and recognize the positive impact they have on our students!

Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress (ISASPs) are coming up soon. Each building works to make a schedule for times to test while trying to not disrupt the normal school schedule. Please prioritize attendance during the days of testing. Completing make-up tests in different locations and at different times from peers is not the best setting for students to show what they know. Try to not schedule appointments or activities for days when your child(ren) will be testing.
