Blood Drive TODAY!

Improving attendance is not rocket science, but it does take commitment, collaboration and tailored approaches to the particular strengths and challenges of each school or community. Let’s do it! #schooleveryday #triopia

Mr. Anderson visited Mrs. Pahlmann's 1st grade class in October for Science. The students had been learning about animals, animal parts, and how animals survive during the Life Science unit. Mr. Anderson taught the first graders about bats and other animals. During his visit, students saw skeletons of different animals and saw many different types of bats. They learned interesting facts, like bats have fingers and a thumb! They learned so much from him! We hope to invite Mr. Anderson back for another visit in the future. #triopia



Reminder: Family Reading Night is tomorrow, Wednesday, November 20 at 5:30 PM. Registration will begin at 5:15 in the office hallway. To end the evening, the 5th and 6th grade band will perform at 6:30 PM in the grade school gym.
Hope you can join us!
