Mrs. Rogers’ second graders had the privilege of having Mayor Jason Curran lead them in Junior Achievement sessions teaching them about communities, jobs, money, voting, and making choices. They have enjoyed seeing him each week and learning about how they can make a difference in their own community!
Environmental Club members and their families were invited to an Earth Day picnic last Saturday! After enjoying lunch, they hiked to Starved Rock and made their way to the French Canyon before heading back to explore the museum! Although it was chillier than they hoped, they had a great day enjoying nature and appreciating our planet, as well as each other's company!

Spirit Day! This Friday April 26 is Country Spirit Day!
The Bulldogs brought home three 1st place plaques from the Vermillion Conference track meet! Running into the wind to end a race made it tricky to break some school records, but the kids gave it their all! Please find the results for the day below.

First Grade Space Day!
Students experienced history first hand on Monday, April 17th, when the 8th grade went to the Illinois Holocaust Museum. Students have been studying the genocide for the past month in both history and ELA. They were led on a tour through the museum which includes an incredible amount of artifacts including a box car used to transport Jews to concentration camps. Students also heard from a speaker whose parents were Holocaust survivors. Using their experiences, students will be completing and presenting a project this week in history class.
Congratulations to Addi S., winner of the American Legion Essay Contest. She will present her essay to the Legion Thursday, April 18th, 2024. Great Job!
