Leaping into learning! 🤸‍♂️📏 Our third graders put on their mathematician hats to measure how far they could jump! They didn’t just stop at the landing—they took their data to the next level by: 📝 Recording results in tally charts and frequency tables. 🔢 Converting measurements to the nearest foot. 📈 Graphing their progress on a line plot. Who knew math could be this active?

😎 🏫 😎 #TBT brings back Memories of Yesterday!

🏇🐂 On Friday, February 13th, Clayton FFA students had the chance to attend the World's Toughest Rodeo at the Grand Casino Arena. It was a very tough rodeo, with only one bull rider making his full 8 seconds. The kids had a great time! Special thanks to Arlaina Meyer and the Cumberland FFA for their help in getting us there and back safely!

💰 📈It's tax season in the classroom as well, as the students in Mr. LaBlanc's Workplace Applications class were able to get some firsthand experience with tax returns. They were tasked with completing a few different IRS 1040 Forms, using various examples. There was a lot of discussion among the students to make sure they were completing them correctly, but in the end, they were all successful in their efforts!

💜💛 On Saturday, February 14, a group of eight High School students and Mrs. Zebro attended the Feed My Starving Children packing event at Rice Lake High School. They were a part of a 79-member team that packed 81 boxes of food in 1 ½ hours. The 81 boxes contained 17,496 meals, which will feed 47 children for an entire year.
Thank you to the following students who gave of their time to help others in need: Alexandra Borzova, Macy Grosskreutz, Jeremy Meyer, Addyson King, Eriz Sanchez Tellechea, Bennett Schradle, Isabelle Schradle, and Emily Zemke👏 👏

🖤🤍🖤101 Dalmatians for the 101st day of school in Kindergarten!! Too cute!

🪵♥️🔨The sawdust was flying and spirits were high in Tech Ed last week! Our creative Fifth Graders proved they have "all heart" as they wrapped up a special woodworking project.
From Scraps to Keepsakes - Students took a deep dive into the world of craftsmanship, transforming donated 2x4 scraps into beautiful, geometric hearts. The process involved:
Design & Planning: Sketching and decorating their visions.
Observation: Watching live demonstrations of table saw cross-cuts and miter saw precision to see how raw lumber becomes workable strips.
Assembly: Carefully painting and wood-gluing their pine strips to create a finished gift for those they hold "near and dear."
The "Aroma" of Success - For many students, this was their first introduction to the sights and smells of a functional woodshop. Beyond the technical skills, the project highlighted the importance of sustainability by upcycling donated materials into meaningful art.
Instructor Ryan Eichman is quoted saying: "The smell of fresh sawdust and the focus in the room was incredible. These students aren't just building hearts; they’re building confidence." 👏👏

♥️ Valentine's Day may be behind us, but we still have love to share!
♥️ The Bears Club kiddos had fun at their pajama party!
♥️ Fourth Grade had fun building (and filling) their Valentine Boxes!
