Mrs. Hormann's pre-k class explored their senses this week. Today they explored their sense of taste with lemons, peppermint, and cookies.
Several of Mrs. Gollihare’s 3rd grade students have been doing amazing on Xtra Math these past few weeks! Keep up the great work kids!
Tomorrow is the last full day to sale items for our fundraiser. You all have done a great job so far and we are close to our goal just with online sales. Please send your paper sales to school with your student on Friday.
We have received this cool hat. Tomorrow Ms White will draw one student who has registered online and shared contacts to wear tomorrow's school.
Pictures should be in Prior to our retake day of October 7, 2026. We will retake any absent student, new student or those who need to retake. Please review the policy for retaking pictures.

Mrs. Morris’ s fourth grade class enjoyed a homework party on Friday ! The students earn points each day that they all bring their homework back completed and on time and get to celebrate!
We would like to thank Halee and Libby from OSU Extension Services for coming and sharing their school enrichment activities. They read Applesauce Day and the students got to help make and eat applesauce. The students had a great time.
We are so proud of Liam and Anaiya out of Mrs. Grubaugh's third grade class! They finished their subtraction facts in under 12 second! Keep up the great work!
Our big fundraiser starts in a few days! Our goal is to raise $25,000.00 For Educational Programs, supplies, activities and other needs not covered by our budget.
We are asking ALL parents to pre-register their student(s) here:

Make sure you use Group Code: JJALK
Please get at least one person to support our fundraiser before our official kick-off day. Any student that is registered and adds 10 contacts will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win over 1,000 prizes. How cool would it be if we took a chunk out of our goal BEFORE the fundraiser even starts?

Students have been having a great time learning in the STEAM lab this year. We are thankful to have Mrs Cox.
Our students missed the Cattle Drive, but got a surprise when the cattle came to our playground.
