“We are a Class Family”
What a wonderful group of students! It is a joy to see how much they have grown and how hard they work together. Mrs. Struve’s first grade class demonstrated great collaboration as everyone joined in to complete a puzzle, piece by piece.

High Five Friday shoutout to Bethel Lutheran for joining us this morning and welcoming our students with smiles and high fives! Thank you also for the delicious goodies you brought for our staff—we appreciate your kindness and support.
💲Peer Helper students participated in a hands-on financial literacy, budgeting, and socioeconomic status activity last week. Students learned about various levels of socioeconomic status and how to budget using real world wants vs. needs. 🛒Then students were given a specific budget and had to purchase a spaghetti dinner for a family of 4. They had a fun time rising to the challenge! #GrowAtSO #WolverineWay






⛳It's MEET DAY! Our boys golf team takes on the Royals of MMCRU tonight in Remsen. Tee time is 4:30. #silverandblackpack #WolverineWay

Our TK students had a hands-on learning day using Play-Doh to strengthen their fine motor skills while practicing letter recognition by creating the letters in their names. Learning through play makes every lesson more fun!









Due to the unpredictable forecast and Tornado Watch, we are going to postpone tonight's JH Track meet to tomorrow, 4/24/26. There will not be JH practice after school today.
Mission Accomplished... in the Library!
While the world was cheering for the Artemis II crew during their historic splashdown last week, our students were busy taking on a creative challenge of their own!
During free time, students were challenged to draw "Rise"—the official moon mascot and Zero-G indicator that just returned from a 600,000-mile journey around the Moon!
It’s been so much fun watching the students connect with this mission. From learning about the first crew to visit the lunar far side in over 50 years to seeing how a young student (just like them!) designed the "Rise" mascot, their curiosity has been out of this world.

Happy Earth Day! Today our students celebrated by creating fun Earth Day crafts and enjoying nature walks around our community. It was a wonderful day of learning about the importance of caring for our planet while exploring the beauty of the world around us.





Behind every successful school is a team that keeps everything running smoothly—and our administrative professionals are at the heart of it all. From greeting students and families to managing the details that keep our days on track, their dedication, organization, and care make a difference in every building, every day.
