I am about a month late posting but we had THE BEST time celebrating our Rockin' Readers! We had a dance party, root beer floats, ice cream sundaes, popcorn, tattoos, coloring, an autograph zone, and SO MUCH FUN! This all came together with the hard work of a few individuals, the help of all teachers and associates, AHS Prom committee for loaning us past decorations, State 5 Theater for the yummy popcorn, Sanchez Grocery of Corwith for the ice cream machine, and HyVee for some delicious snacks! We also need to thank the parents and families of all of our students for reading to them and encouraging them to read. It truly is a group effort! And last but definitely not least, we need to give a special shout-out to Mrs. Wiita's class on winning the Kindergarten reading slip challenge! They received VIP passes and exclusive early access to our dance party! Be sure to check out Facebook for more pictures!
Congratulations for these Bulldog Heroes!

Thank you for being so patient. We are going to dismiss kids out of our buildings at 4:15. Buses will be about 1 hour behind tonight. There will be no middle school practices.
All students will remain in the buildings today until the Tornado warning passes. All of our buses will wait and will transport kids as normal once the warning is over.
Reminder! No school tomorrow, April 17, due to Staff Development.
