Today, Mrs. Grote’s English Language Learners learned about the meaning and importance of Veterans Day. They also explored the different branches of military service. To show their appreciation, they wrote heartfelt thank-you letters to one of Mrs. Grote's former students, Scottie Neubauer, who is currently deployed.

A sincere thank-you to all who have served and continue to serve our country! ❤️🤍💙
Happy Veterans Day to all! 🇺🇸

OABCIG Schools will have a two hour late start today, 10/30, due to the fog. There will be no morning preschool and no before school activities.

First Grade Classes got to learn and tour the Woodbury Library Bookmobile. The Bookmobile started in 1950 and is 75 years old. It now has over 3000 books that people can check out. It's a library on wheels. The first grade classes in their first module of Wit and Wisdom, reading curriculum, learned all the ways that books travel to children all over the world. We learned that there are traveling libraries with donkeys, horses, motorcycles, bookmobiles, wagons, ships, and bikes. And we asked ourselves throughout the module, "How do books change people's lives?". The Ida Grove School PTP made a donation to the Woodbury Library Bookmobile. Thanks PTP!!! You are the best!
