Delightful Moments

 

Mrs. Hayes called all of us to gather in the gym.

News?  An announcement of some kind...we wondered.

Then a woman appeared, looking for Mrs. Gray.

(We think Principal Hayes was keeping a secret!)

Our Kristi Gray was named
a 2026 Golden Apple educator!

WTHI-TV News Director Susan Dinkel 

made the surprise announcement.

There was no keeping Mrs. Gray's class in their seats.

Being a part of this history is pretty exciting.

Congratulations!

Enjoy the moments on a special day:

It's Our Way

The Artemis ll mission successfully accomplished the 1st
lunar flyby in over 50 years, returning to Earth on April 10th.

Mrs. Gray's 2nd graders have

been preparing for a rocket launch.

Gather materials, measuring, and
designing is all part of the process.

Partners check with each other,
if needed, as they assemble their crafts.

It's all systems "go" for them to finish
and be ready for blast-off on Friday, April 17th.

Good Luck!

Grand News from School

  

Eastern Illinois University recently named our

very own Mrs. Mendenhall as a Distinguished

Music Educator.

Congratulations on this special honor!
