Each week, we focus on a new word that helps us grow as learners and leaders. Our Word of the Week sparks conversations, encourages positive choices, and reminds us of the kind of school community we want to build together.

So far, we’ve explored belong, perspective, prepared, and this week’s word is respect! These words are showing up in classrooms and conversations throughout the elementary. It has been fun to see students making connections and putting them into action.

Mrs. Roemer and Mrs. Frickels kindergarten classes celebrated Grandparents Day by inviting their grandparents to, "Yogurt and Granola with Our Grandparents." Grandparents play a vital role in their grandchild's life and the need to be celebrated.

JH VB at Boyd County tomorrow will be two sets of "B" team first followed by the "A" team.

Mrs. Frickel’s Kindergarten class has been learning all about shapes in Math. After their math lesson, students become “shape detectives” by searching around the classroom for cards that show the shape they are learning about. Each student uses a magnifying glass in the same shape they are looking for to help them find the matching cards. Once they find a match, they locate that shape’s word on their paper and trace over it.
This activity helps students stay engaged and actively involved in their math learning. It also allows them to make real-life connections by identifying shapes they see around them while practicing shape recognition and vocabulary.

Juniors will take the ASVAB test on Wednesday, September 16th beginning at 8:03AM. Testing should be complete in 1.5-2 hours. Students will return to their classes following testing. Students should report directly to the lecture hall on testing day with their charged laptops. Contact Mrs. Ruppert with any questions or concerns.
