These smiling faces had a great week learning a few essential life skills in baking, fractions and cleaning up. I hope their families enjoyed their efforts this week. The aromas were enjoyed by many staff in the building, too.


Summer school? Summer fun!! Thank you to the Stuart and Meghan Brokopp family, Jen and Jerry Volenec and family and Dave Cook from Cook's Christmas Tree farm for letting our small crew of 3rd and 4th grade students visit life on your farm. We had so much fun and appreciate the time you took to show us the wonderful agriculture in our neighborhood. The smiles were endless.




Thanks to GENYOUth we have thermal covers, coolers and carts for distributing food! #ForSchoolsSake

Both are smaller framed animals and finish well on grass using rotational grazing. On her farm, they have more than 30 acres of native prairie grasses and flowers and have planted more than 30,000 evergreen and hardwood trees on their property.
