What a joyful day we've had!
Today was bursting with fun—filled with dancing, creativity during art time, laughter at recess, and the magic of story time.
As we wrap up the school year, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you for sharing your wonderful student(s) with us. It has been a true joy watching them grow—from tiny seeds into strong, confident trees, ready to reach for the sky.
Wishing you a bright, relaxing, and adventure-filled SUMMER!






As the school year comes to a close, we want to give a heartfelt THANK YOU to the amazing staff members who are moving on—whether to KMS or new adventures beyond.
We are incredibly grateful for the time, care, and dedication you've shared with our school community. Your impact will be felt for years to come.
A special shout-out to Ms. Lori, Ms. Laken, Mrs. Clark, Mrs. Endsley, and Mrs. Batchman—thank you for everything. You will be deeply missed, and we wish you all the best in your next chapter!


What professional skills do we need as we grow? Third grade listened to parent presenters and then wrote, edited, revised, illustrated and presented about these essential skills. Using patience, communication, integrity, trustworthiness, organization, problem solving and much more was discussed. We will be proud of these home-grown leaders as they put these skills into practice. On to 4th grade!











Do you know your way around a kitchen? Third grade students learned from the Baking and Pastry Class at EJSHS about measuring, hand washing, recipes, and organization. It was made even better by a delicious snack and lunch provided by Bearcat Bites. Students excited to learn and learning from some of the best! Thank you, Mrs. Burger!











Homegrown learning! Visiting EJSHS let third grade students see the greenhouse, shop, ag classroom, gaming, technology, business and library classrooms. Third graders came away excited and pretty sure high school is going to be FUN! Thank you to teachers and students who shared your learning and excitement.
