These are the "Super Custodians" that strip, wax, scrub, paint, and complete maintenance requests all summer long to ready our schools for students and staff. These gentleman teamed up this year and worked between buildings. Things are looking great and we are nearly ready for our students to return. As a small token, we took them out for breakfast this morning. GO Lions!

Our 5th graders recently finished their "Web of Life" unit with a mix of hands-on projects and field exploration. Some groups created detailed Biomes and Wetland Webs to show how energy flows through an ecosystem. To top it all off, every class gets to go to the Cache River wetlands for a day of canoeing and dip-netting!
These 30 students were randomly selected out of all students with zero office referrals in Term 4. Students received a certificate, gift bag, and an invitation to join me in a fun game to start the day. We are proud of their behavior and accomplishments. GO Lions!
Please encourage your child to retrieve their items from our Lost and Found. All items will be donated over summer break.
