It was great to welcome kiddos and parents to kindergarten visitation today. We can’t wait to have you in our building all day next year.





Mrs. Parry’s 2nd graders learned in Art that they can tint & color mix white model magic clay with magic markers (sorry parents 🤷🏻♀️ lol). Their minds were blown!! 🤯 but they created some really cool & colorful figurines!!





Looking towards the last six and half weeks of the school year and our COVID protocols, we are seeking input from patrons as we move forward in our continued efforts to keep in-person school and activities taking place to wrap up the school year. Keeping in mind that if things take turn in a different direction in regards current case trends, prom, graduation and the length of the school year could be affected negatively. Please complete the survey at this link regarding COVID protocols.
If you have questions, please feel free to reach out to Mr. Lyder at anytime: llyder@usd109.org or 785-527-5621.

Today was our second annual Art at the Farm! We built our own pit fire for our pottery projects, made batiks, drawings, pour paintings, s’mores, and even went on a photo scavenger hunt. Who says you can’t have fun when it’s raining! Thanks to all our parents who helped out with lunch and to Ami Price for teaching us some new techniques. It was a day well spent!





Broken pottery? No, problem! A great opportunity for an Art History lesson!!!
