💜💛 To start the year off “write,” our administrators and school board members handed out Saber pencils to students and staff as they arrived for their first day of school. It was wonderful seeing all those smiling faces again, and thanks to the enthusiasm of our amazing students and staff it was a great first day!

The railroad crossing closures from 4th Avenue in DeWitt all the way to Grand Mound are greatly impacting our bus routes. Please be aware that until the work is complete, bus routes may be running behind. Rest assured we will get your children to school safely! We appreciate your patience as we navigate this obstacle the next few weeks.

Congratulations to 2023 graduate Fayeth Henningsen who was one of only four in the United States to be selected as a national finalist in Ag Education for her Proficiency Award! She will compete in Indianapolis in November. This is a huge honor to be selected and we are incredibly proud of her accomplishments within her SAE. She has taught over 5,000 elementary students throughout her four years in FFA and it has propelled her toward a degree in early childhood education with the goal of becoming a kindergarten teacher. Way to go, Fayeth!
