Happy Assistant Principal's week Mrs. Kruse!
This week is National Assistant Principal Week!

Happy Assistant Principals Week! #assistantprincipal #highschool #thankyouaps
A big congrats to our main event winners this week!
The third-grade students have been studying the force of gravity this week! They experimented with the speed items fall to Earth, how they are affected by the air around them, and how they react when they fall. They loved it! They had to make predictions about each object, observe it falling, and record the result and why the item reacted the way it did.
Aligned Impact of Muscatine County organized enrichment sessions for our third-grade classes this month.
The first session was with Michelle Berns from Muscatine County Conservation. She brought in tadpoles to examine and helped students identify the parts of a frog's or toad's life cycle.
A big congratulations to our main event winners this week!
For the month of April, our focus at the ELC and Elementary is problem-solving. We will be looking for students who show us how to work through big and little problems throughout the school day!
Kindergarteners were excited to surprise Ms. Bugenhagen for National School Librarian Appreciation Day!
Happy School Librarian Appreciation Day to Ms. Bugenhagen!
Your dedication to fostering a love for reading, providing valuable resources, and creating a welcoming space for learning makes a world of difference in our students' lives.
Good Morning,
Our 1st and 2nd Grade Music Concert has been moved to May 8th at 1:30 pm. This is a change due to the fact that some classrooms are not ready for the concert because of missing time due to winter weather the past few months. We are sorry for any inconvenience.
Save the date for our 1st & 2nd grade concert on May 8th!
