Get your neon out and come support the Dragons as they host Silver Lake this Friday, September 30th, at 3 PM. The JH and HS pep band will be playing on this night as well!
The most important thing a teacher does? It is far more than the lesson plans, the standards, or some test. Those of us in education have all had THAT teacher who really touched our lives. Mrs. Moeller is THAT teacher for Gracie Miller, FCA senior. Thank you, Mrs. Moeller! 💜💛
Another shout out to our FCA group and our generous local businesses! FCA purchased running belts for our cross country runners, AND…
FCA matched the funds raised from our T-shirt sales for cancer awareness with Reinkes, MetalQuest, and Midwest Bank offering to do the same!
And finally…our 6th-8th graders at the top of their MAPS scoring game:
6th - Jackson Beam (all 4 tests!),
7th - Makenna Freitag (all 4 tests!), and 8th - Danica O’Neal (Reading and Science) and Landyn Tuma (Language Usage and Math).
Great work, young Dragons!
