✨ Look at this AMAZING artwork created by our very own school cook, 𝐒𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐧! 🎨💚

This fun, fairy-tale-inspired drawing reminds us to “𝐄𝐚𝐭 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠!” 👑 From dragons to castles and some very familiar storybook friends, every detail celebrates how breakfast fuels us for the day’s big adventures.

Our kitchen doesn’t just serve meals — they serve creativity, care, and a whole lot of heart. 💛

Thank you to our talented cook for sharing your gifts with our school and for making sure our students start every day ready to learn, grow, and conquer their quests!

Be sure to grab breakfast this week and thank our incredible nutrition staff! 🥣🍎

National School Breakfast Week
🎭 Opera Iowa performed The Three Billy Goat Gruff Opera by Mozart, Rossini and Donizett on Friday, February 27th to K-5 students from the OABCIG District. The plot of the story was “We will be fair and kind and true to each and everyone no matter who”, which was the chorus of a song that students got to join in and sing.🎶 The troupe did two workshops before the show with upper elementary students. The 4th graders workshop was Let’s Make an Opera, and 5th graders were Singers and Vocal Styles. A huge thank you to Des Moines Metro Opera for bringing this wonderful experience to our students! 👏✨
