State Qualifier! Paige Smithberg! Some people have a need for SPEED and Paige is one of them! Paige joined the track team this year and made an immediate impact. She is always working hard and looking to improve. This was showcased on the track today at the Regional Track Meet. Paige had the BEST day of her track career today. She started the day by running a lifetime best of 12.96 in the 100M. She then proceeded to anchor the 4X200 team to state qualifying with a 2nd place finish. She finished her day with a REGION CHAMPIONSHIP in the 200M with a time of 27.07! I told you she was fast! Way to go, Paige!

State Qualifier! Vivian Nygaard! Is there anything she can't do? Vivian has been a staple in the middle distance & sprint program. She is always giving her best effort and ready to do what's best for the team. This was shown today at the Regional Track Meet -- she was on 3 relays and ran 1 open. She helped 2 relays qualify for State and qualified for State in the open 400M. She ran a lifetime best of 1:02.39 in her 400M. She is our lead leg in the 4X100 & 4X200 relays and had us out to great starts in both. Then she finished her day with an amazing anchor leg in the 4X400, her 400 split was under 1:02 in a highly contested 4X400! Vivian and the 4X800 relay qualified for State earlier in the season and are currently ranked #14 in Class B State. Way to go, Vivian!

Way to go, Vivian, Jurnee, Aliza, & Paige!

🏕️🔥 Mrs. Ator's Camp Learn-A-Lot 2026 was one for the books! 🔥🏕️
This week our classroom officially transformed into a campground full of learning, laughter, teamwork, and just a little bit of controlled chaos. 😂
Our campers spent the week:
✈️ Testing paper airplanes and changing variables like future engineers
🎭 Creating and performing reader’s theaters complete with props and sets
🗺️ Designing map grids and showing off their navigation skills
🍫 Describing s’mores with enough adjectives to make anyone hungry
🎣 Fishing for fractions and goldfish
🥤 Learning teamwork through cup stacking challenges
🫧 Making bubbles… or as teachers call it, “desk cleaning with extra fun”
📚 Reading by flashlight
🏕️ Completing camping-themed math, reading, science, and writing activities all week long
The students brought amazing energy, creativity, teamwork, and excitement every single day. It was such a fun way to wrap up the school year while still learning A LOT along the way!
A huge thank you to our families for helping provide supplies, treats, flashlights, chairs, and all the extra fun that helped make this week a success. We definitely made some memories around our “classroom campfire” this week! 🏕️🔥💛
