We are aware that several students and parents are currently experiencing issues with their Rooms accounts through the Calumet app.

We are working with Apptegy to identify and resolve the issue as quickly as possible. At this time, there is no action needed from students or parents who are experiencing the problem.

We appreciate your patience and will share an update when we have more information.

On Monday, our fifth and sixth graders were given a fun assignment: bring one item from home that best describes you, along with one sentence explaining why you chose it. Today, the mystery began! Each student’s card was placed into a basket, and one by one, students drew a card and tried to figure out who brought the item. Once the mystery was solved, the student who brought it got to share what they brought and explain why it represents them. Every class period was filled with laughter, surprises, and plenty of “I never would have guessed that!” moments. Most importantly, we got to learn a little more about the unique personalities, interests, and stories that make each of our students who they are. 💙 What a fun way to get to know one another a little better! 📚😊

Reminder: There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, September 7th. Enjoy your Labor Day weekend! 🇺🇸

📸 Remember! Picture Day is TOMORROW, Thursday, September 3rd!

We will take our yearbook pictures as well as Senior Panel Pictures.

🟢 Jostens uses a green screen, so steer away from wearing green or you might end up as a floating head! 😄

Seniors: More information about Senior Panel Pictures is available via the Senior Yearbook Room in the Calumet App.
