This week Student Council members were able to campaign for Executive Board positions. They made slide shows, created posters, and videos sharing their ideas and slogans. 5th graders were also able to vote in their first election after studying government and elections. We had some close races with some strong candidates, and are excited to announce the 2024-2025 Student Council Officers: President-Emily Thelen, Vice-President - Karter Brown, Secretary-Bre Facker, and Treasurer- Olivia Stoller.

Thank you to everyone who volunteered their time and came out to cheer on our Warriors at the cross country Warrior Invite last night.

Today was day #1 for the Pond Water Lab in Ms. Ganson's 7th grade Life Science classes. Students collected water samples from the small pond in our school garden, identified the microorganisms under the microscope, and assessed the water quality of the pond.
Congratulations to this week's dude.we.see.you winner, Hannah Galletti! Here is what another student wrote about her: "She is always just so nice and supportive of everyone around her in all of her classes even when she hardly knows them.
