Our third graders were so proud to share their hard work—and the first graders had a great time playing!











Congratulations to Mrs. Sauers, Mrs. Lein and Mrs. Marion on their retirements! They are wonderful teachers and even better people and we are certainly going to miss them. 💙











Today in STEAM, Miss Altenburger’s 1st graders visited Mr. Burger’s 3rd graders to play the educational board games they invented!
The 3rd graders designed these games especially for y5s, kindergarteners, and 1st graders. It was a blast watching their creativity come to life!







Recess fun in the sun ☀️




Mrs. Cunningham's class had a Pool Party today. We transformed our classroom and the kids loved it. Snacks and punch that looked like miniature fishbowls, yard games, bubbles, Popsicles, and sidewalk chalk!
