William Norden, Josie VanZee, Ainsley Gustad, Aubrey Warejcka, Eden Kramp, and Ivy Samuelson completed the 100-Day Homework Challenge by completing all of their homework for 100 days and celebrated with donuts this morning, eating pizza and going bowling 🎳! Congratulations!


Marlee VanZee was awarded with a Good News Call! A student shared that when they got to school in the morning they ran over to the swings only to find that the swings were already taken. Marlee noticed this student, and offered her swing up. Even though the other student said it's was ok, Marlee insisted the student take her swing because she knew how much she enjoys swinging. Thank you, Marlee, for noticing and showing kindness to others!
