Welcome to the Kindergarten Shoe Tying Club, Caleb!
Today's Walk-A-Thon needs to be cancelled due to the weather. Prizes will still be awarded in the gymnasium this morning.
Mr. Leither's students are playing soccer this week.

Our soccer unit was a success with a lot of cone drills and team games! The students were really involved and enjoyed some competitive soccer.
We are so fortunate to have Alice and a supportive food service staff that create the most colorful and nutritious meals. Each day we serve food items from local farmers. The milk, beef, fruits and vegetables on today's lunch tray are all local (including a full salad bar that is not pictured). How incredible is that?!
To celebrate Farm to School Month, we are inviting parents/guardians and grandparents to join us for lunch on Thursday, October 12th. Registration forms were sent home with K-6th graders. 7-12th grade students can pick up a form in the office if interested. We hope you can join us and try a Farm to School meal for yourself!
