Congratulations to the PE winners for the weeks of October 24-November 6. These kiddos all had positive attitudes, great effort, and wonderful sportsmanship!

Focus on communication, teamwork, delegation, patience, and trust were all skills tackled as part of the cybersecurity escape room 7th grade worked on! Discovering what they learned, their strengths and weaknesses, and applying real life skills truly put them to a test!

Exciting day at our assembly yesterday! We had a candy corn relay race, a few teachers got pied, and we had all of our call outs/student of the month recognized. Congratulations Brinley on being named student of the month for October!

Grades 3-6 were busy learning about different book genres during Library in October. To end the month, they enjoyed center activities such as a task card scavenger hunt with genre questions and a science fiction pop-up foldable craft.










Happy Halloween from the high school staff! Have a spooktacular day!'

This is to inform everyone about the dismissal plan on Thursday and Friday this week because of the District 8 Volleyball Tournament. Elementary students will be dismissed and sent out the southwest door by the playground. 7-12 students who are in band/choir and weight training can be dismissed through the same doors. All other students must leave through the door by the north stairwell, which leads to the teacher parking lot.
Junior and Kindergarten Comet Connections worked together decorating pumpkins today!










Congratulations to Cooper for being our 2nd student to earn 100 Accelerated Reader points this year and his ticket to the field trip this spring! Way to read!

Book Blast books from our event a month ago were delivered to the students on Friday! Every student in our elementary, regardless of it they were able to participate, received at least 2 books to keep as their own. Teachers were surprised with a classroom set of books, as well. The excitement on the students' faces was amazing! Thank you to everyone who participated and/or contributed!










Last week, the juniors in chemistry celebrated Mole Day on 10/23 honoring Avogadro's number as a unit for mathematical conversions in chemistry. They also adopted a chemical element to which they will be knowledge keeper for the school year.

Congratulations to the PE Winners for Oct. 3-23. These kiddos all showed great sportsmanship, effort, and attitude. Keep up the great work!!

A few junior high students took part in the region 7 honor band in Turtle Lake on Friday. They all sounded great!
