Unscheduled marching band performance during recess. ❤️ So cute to not only see the little ones looking up with admiration enjoying their performance, but the pride on the big kids’ faces. Such a sweet “family” bond between fellow Wildcats. 🥰

Walked into my office and this is what I saw. Nobody works harder than our secretaries. Couldn’t do it without them.

High School Volleyball scheduled for tomorrow in Yates Center has been postponed due to lack of officials. I will let you know the make up date as soon as possible.

Once a month, the high school faculty and staff have what they call a "Faculty Food Day." Each staff member signs up to bring things that fit a certain theme. September was to celebrate the "Dog Days of Summer" and Mrs. Genoble had the junior high resource class make pies for the meal! "They were very excited to make and share them with the staff!" said Mrs. Genoble. They may have even snuck a slice for themselves!

Did you know that the Functional Program from the MS/HS Resource Room actually began the first weekend of school? They ran the concessions all day for the Three Rivers League Volleyball Tournament. From Mrs. Genoble(Resource Teacher), "Running the concessions stand was a great experience for all of us. The students did amazing at learning customer service, teamwork, proper communication, and counting money. The customers were great at understanding this was a learning experience and many were glad the students were learning to count back change. "
