Our 6th graders headed to the Wartburg W to swim, play, and enjoy some fun in the recreation space! 🌊😎 Who needs sunshine when you have great friends, lots of laughs, and indoor fun? 💙🙌

The elementary wants to present the September students of the month. Pictured L to R. Bristol Schaufenbuel (3) Violet Johnson (1) Waylon Druvenga (pk) Juan Pablo Cardona (4) Cameron Schutte (2) Charlie Nosbisch (K) These students showed up every day ready to learn and ready to lead.
