The girls basketball team spent part of their day on December 11th helping at the Clayton County Food Shelf. They bagged groceries, organized donations, and stocked shelves. Always proud to see our students giving back to the community. ❤️🤍



Coffee and Carols was such a warm way to start the day today. Our musicians brought a little extra cheer to the morning, and it was great to see people stop by and enjoy the music.
We’ll be doing it again on December 19 and 23, and everyone is welcome. If you’re free, come grab a cup of coffee and enjoy a few carols to start your morning on a good note. 🎶☕

❄️ We had a wonderful Winter Instrumental Concert last night at the Elkader Opera House 🎶. Our 5th grade band, 6th grade band, JH band, and HS band all took the stage, and they sounded great.
Thank you to the Elkader Opera House for hosting us in such a beautiful space, and to Think Custom for lending their trailer so we could move all of our equipment. It truly took a community to make this concert happen, and we’re grateful for everyone who helped bring the night together.

Thank you to Mike, Drew, and Adam from NAPA for letting the Electricity class visit them and showing us all about generators, starters, and alternators. It was especially great to learn about the testing and repair procedures for the equipment so many of us rely on everyday!

Preschoolers are on a kindness spree! Today’s kindness: Mug the teachers with sweet treats and sweet smiles! 🥰❄️
