Events and Dress-Up Days below

Our 7th graders had an amazing day in Des Moines on Tuesday! First they saw National Geographic’s Life on the Move with Lucy Hawkes at the Civic Center, then toured the Iowa State Capitol. Great learning, lots of stairs, big views, and even bigger smiles.

1st grader, Anderson Graham, has completed the Calm Unit in Mrs. Meyer's classroom. He has learned how to calm down his thoughts, actions, body, and emotions. We are so proud of you, Anderson! Keep up the good work!
