Many grandparents and other family members are helping to raise children these days. Some of these children have been in the foster system, but many have not. Life circumstances have needed family to step in and support these children. This can be overwhelming and you may be looking for resources to help. Grandfamilies Rising.org of Kansas is a new organization aimed to give support to these unique families. They can help in many areas including: basic needs, advocacy, education, mental health, peer support, and more! Check out their resources to help support your family!

PARENTS & GUARDIANS of JH/HS Students: On TUES, DEC 16th RepCo will be hosting the Holiday Duals Wrestling Tournament starting at 1pm. If your child(ren) is in JH or is a non wrestling HS student we have some exciting plans for the afternoon. Information attached. Parents, you may sign your child out to support the wrestlers but if they are a JH student, we ask that a parent/guardian be there to supervise their child as teachers will be with groups outside the building. Thank you to all the community members that are helping make this afternoon possible for our students! There are many more than the letter states and we thank you all!



Reminder: Kindergarten and 1st Grade Program tonight!

Our chemistry students have been busy growing crystals — and the results are pretty cool! Watching them change from red to green sparked great conversations about chemical reactions, patience, and the science behind crystal formation.
Hands-on labs like this are where learning really sticks. Nice work to our students and Mr. Enns for turning curiosity into color-changing science! 💚🧪
