Sweet teamwork in action! 🍪 Students in Mrs. Bonde’s and Mrs. Schwickerath’s buddy program had a blast decorating cookies, mixing their own frosting colors, and creating some pretty impressive designs.
Our Partners in Education, Dixie and Pete Zeien from Crystal Ball Skating Rink, came to visit Ms. Conary's/Mr. Pagel's fourth-grade class. They shared how they used math in their line of business. The students also learned about repairing/maintaining so the skates continue to be safe to use. The students did an impressive job of asking questions and learned a lot about running a business. Thank you, Dixie and Pete, for spending time with our students.

Students have been working on a sandwich and pizza unit. Their test is this week, but before that, the students had a pizza lab yesterday. Some made Margherita pizza, BLT pizza, taco pizza, chicken barbecue, and more. Labs can be difficult to get all done in 45-minute class periods.
It was definitely a day to wear an apron in the Cooking Around the World class. The students made homemade pasta using semolina flour. Today the class will use the fresh pasta in three different Italian dishes to wrap up their Italy unit.
2026 Yearbook picture day!
Iowa weather likes to keep us guessing this time of year! One day it feels like spring, and the next we're back to winter. ❄️🌬️
Please remember to send your elementary students to school with their winter gear — coats, hats, gloves, and anything else they may need for recess.
