1st annual Middle School Field

8th graders made hot air balloons this morning. Hopefully, the rain will stop for a few minutes on Monday so we can fly them.




Thanks grandparents for making Thursday a special day for our PK students!

Thank you to Mr. Gish, Mrs. Guess, Mrs. Welsh, and Mrs. Walker for all of their help in working with our 4th and 5th graders in our outdoor classroom this week. What a transformation! Can’t wait to see the wonderful learning opportunities we will have this upcoming school year in this space. Great work everyone!!


Please make sure to buy tickets for Monday's baseball games!! GoFan basically made 1 ticket for all the games since we won't be clearing everyone out(fans from first game have been asked to move for fans of second game) Must have purchased a GoFan ticket to enter games on Monday!
The Valley Falls Rotary Club gave each 5th grader a dictionary and each 1st grader a personalized storybook. Thank You!!




1st grade picked up sticks and trash in the park today as their community service project. Then they released their 5 butterflies. They got caterpillars and watched the process of them turning into a chrysalis and then got to see the butterflies emerge. They have fed them sugar water and fruit for a week. It was a beautiful day for the kids and teachers!
