Kindergarten is celebrating Dr. Seuss's birthday this week with dress up days and special readers. To start off their week, on Monday, Officer French visited to read his favorite book - Green Eggs and Ham! #fes #EaglesSoar

The third-grade students enjoyed a delightful math activity last week and would like to extend their gratitude to Mary Sheckler, of Papa Murphy's in Platteville/Prairie du Chien, for generously contributing her time and providing all the necessary ingredients. Thanks to her support, these third grade students had the opportunity to engage in hands-on learning, where they weighed, measured, counted, and portioned out their favorite ingredients. Each student created their own delicious masterpiece to take home and bake. While waiting to make their pizza students also got the chance to work on other various activities to sharpen their fraction skills. #EaglesSoar #fes
