Welcome to the National Parks Road Show! Our 5th grade Honors class researched different national parks in the US and created amazing presentations to educate us all about them!
Today our 5th graders had a chance to show off all their hard work and research at their Biography Fair! Their commitment to their characters and the fun facts about their famous person were awesome!

Today one of our Kindergarteners got a ride of a lifetime to school! One of Mrs Kandell's students won a trip to school in a Firetruck. She was greeted by her classroom, who all had an opportunity to check it out. This trip was won through the raffle baskets at the PTO Candy Bar Bingo. What a great way to start the week!!! 🚒
We had a marvelous night tonight at Candy Bar Bingo! In addition, families were able to put tickets in to raffle off donated baskets. We had a great turn out and some families went home with some cool prizes!!!

We are mourning the loss of Tom Hernandez longtime Director of Community Relations who passed away April 15, 2024.
Superintendent of Schools Dr. Glenn Wood said Hernandez was a thoughtful, caring person representing District 202 proudly and professionally.
“Tom Hernandez was a true champion for District 202 and was well known for his professionalism, positive attitude, and big heart. He was known as “The Voice” of 202 because he made the school cancellation phone calls and often served as emcee for district and other events. Hernandez’s legacy is one of compassion and community. He will be deeply missed.”

Assistant Principal Appreciation week was apparently this week. We had it on our calendar for NEXT week. So, oh darn, we will celebrate Mrs. Gawla for TWO weeks instead of one (she is doubly amazing though, so it is fitting isn't it?!?!)
This flyer will be coming home with students today, but if your child would like to participate in some fun dress up days, I think Mrs. Gawla would love it! Thanks for all your support!
We value and appreciate all our school librarians today on National School Librarian Day and all days! District 202 appreciates your hard work and dedication to your job! #202proud
