Pizza, pasta, and polar animals made for a perfect combination! A big thank you to Joe’s Pizza for generously donating boxes to Mrs. Wilder’s 3rd grade homeroom.

Mrs. McClellan’s first graders enjoyed reading How the Grinch Stole Christmas and then teamed up to design their own sleighs! The challenge was getting them up Mt. Crumpit, and we tested how many presents each sleigh could carry. What a fun holiday activity!
The buddies in Mrs. Siemer’s 3rd grade class and Mrs. Willman’s 1st grade class enjoyed spending time together listening to the story Elf and learning how to draw Buddy the Elf. They also enjoyed singing some Christmas songs together!
Our 4th-grade students worked hard to deck the halls for the holidays, filling our school with creativity, teamwork, and festive spirit! We are so proud of their effort and enthusiasm. It truly makes our school shine this season.
The third graders will be participating in the Bikes for Books program sponsored by the Edgewood Masonic Lodge #484. This will take place in the 3rd quarter. Students will earn tickets for successfully passing an AR test on a book. In March, we will draw the winner, and they will win a bike. This is our 2nd year of doing this program. Thanks to the Masonic Lodge for giving us this opportunity. We can't wait to see how many books the 3rd graders can read in the 3rd quarter.
Mrs. Kreke’s students had a wonderful time building gingerbread houses at school. The classroom was filled with creativity, teamwork, and lots of holiday excitement. Here are a few of our masterpieces.
These first graders in Mrs. Mellendorf's class have spent the last two weeks completing a Gingerbread Unit in class. Their Reading curriculum story was "The Gingerbread Man," so they extended this unit and read many of the other versions of the gingerbread stories together in class. They then became the author/illustrator and created their own gingerbread stories, painted a gingerbread man and house, and this week will make an edible gingerbread house for a snack.
The student council hosted a staff Ugly Christmas sweater contest! The votes are in, and they voted Mrs. Waldhoff as the 1st place winner, Mrs. Habing as second place, and Mrs. Dayton as the 3rd place winner!
