We are thrilled to share the heartwarming experience our 6th-grade Kindness Crew members had recently while volunteering at Fieldstone of DeWitt. 💜💛
Our Kindness Crew, alongside CDIS School Counselor Mollie Bates and 5th-grade Teacher Angie Hofer, spent a delightful afternoon playing games and spending quality time with the wonderful residents of Fieldstone. Laughter, smiles, and meaningful connections were shared, making it a truly special afternoon for everyone involved.
We're proud of the Kindness Crew and the way these continue to promote positivity!

💜💛 Congratulations to our October 2023 district Student of the Month Noah Speas! He is featured in today's edition of The Observer - DeWitt, Iowa thanks to our friends at First Central State Bank.
When Noah Speas chose Peer STEM as an elective this year, he wasn’t sure what to expect. Peer STEM is a class in which middle school students participate and support STEM students with special needs in learning computer science skills, engineering, and more.
Noah had no idea he would learn much more than science, technology, engineering and math. His experiences in Peer STEM have also taught him the importance of patience and perseverance, that everyone matters, and everyone can succeed no matter their abilities.
Peer STEM teachers Ms. Smith, Mrs. Jackson, and Mrs. Walsh, who nominated Noah for Student of the Month, all agree that he perfectly displays the qualities expected of a Peer STEM student.
“He shows great patience while working alongside various class members, often rephrasing the directions or modeling the expectations for the project,” they said. “He does a great job of including everyone and making sure they all feel valued not only in class, but everywhere in the school!”
Noah is a great role model because of his empathy for all students, as well as his willingness to always lend a helping hand. He exemplifies what it means to be a SABER and will certainly continue to make a difference at Central DeWitt!

Eight CDHS Future Business Leaders of America members traveled to Des Moines to attend the State Fall Leadership Conference this week. Members attended breakout rooms, and learned ways to improve our chapter and lead more efficiently. They also met people from other Iowa FBLA chapters. A great opportunity for our members!

Fourth grade students at CDIS have been exploring the Middle Ages in Europe and Medieval Empires while analyzing their impact on the modern world during ELA!
One of their culminating activities after the first part of the unit is to apply their new knowledge to collaboratively create a medieval castle! It is so awesome to see the student engagement, creativity, and collaboration among our students! 💛💜
Way to go, Sabers!

Three local superintendents are getting behind the wheel to help with transportation staffing shortages at their school districts. Our very own Dan Peterson, along with Neil Gray of Northeast Community School District and Gary DeLacy of Clinton Community School District, obtained their CDL so they are able to fill in as needed. Thank you superintendents, and all staff members, who are helping to make sure students always have transportation to and from school as well as activities!

Third grade students have been studying the human body and yesterday they learned even more about the body’s different systems from two local experts. Dr. Stephanie Makela, a pediatric chiropractor, presented on the skeletal system and how it is interconnected with other systems while Amy Fox, an OR nurse, shared her expertise about various working parts within each system (our brain, heart, veins, etc.). The students have been working hard on learning all of the human body systems and they surprised both presenters with the knowledge they already had! Thank you to Dr. Makela and Mrs. Fox for taking time to share your knowledge with our students!
