Third Grade was "ag-cited" that Lisa Hadden visited on Friday, February 10 in celebration of National Pizza Day which was February 9. The students learned the role agriculture and workers from all over the country play in their foods, even pizza. Thank you, Mrs. Hadden for taking the time to educate our students on the importance of agriculture in our lives

Congratulations to Mrs. Amanda Surratt, our district's School Counselor, on being awarded with a "Those Who Excel" Award from the Illinois State Board of Education!
The annual "Those Who Excel" & "Teacher of the Year" Awards celebrate incredible classroom teachers, administrators, teams, volunteers, and school support personnel who have made lasting impacts on the students, families, and fellow educators in their school communities. ISBE will celebrate the awardees at a banquet on April 29.
“The Those Who Excel & Teacher of the Year Awards recognize the people who make education in Illinois so incredible,” said interim State Superintendent of Education Krish Mohip. "Our finalists for Teacher of the Year are amazing. They are pushing the envelope in the classroom, empowering their students, and constantly striving to strengthen their craft. We are so proud to have these excellent educators, as well as amazing custodians, administrators, volunteers, counselors, librarians, and other school support personnel, delivering unparalleled excellence to our students every day."
We are proud to have Mrs. Surratt in our building and are thankful for what she does for our students everyday!

These comments are "thank yous" from the NHS Cup of Joe fundraiser in the fall. These came from deployed soldiers and we wanted to share with our community the thank yous.

The IESA 7-2A boys basketball Sectional game - Triopia v. South Fork (@ 6:30) will be streamed live on the Pawnee Athletic Department YouTube channel - tune in if you can’t make the game!
