4th Grade finished up the Midwest Region by learning about the importance of the assembly line and how it changed the production of all items from cars to toys. The cookie assembly line was the "sweetest" way to end the unit!

Keep up the great work! We are proud of you!
Sixth grade just finished their unit over energy transfer. They tested their skills in building insulated coolers. Each cooler minimized heat transfer and kept their ice, cold water from increasing more than 10 degrees within 30 minutes. Great job!

Huge shout out to fourth grader, Brody, for earning MORE than 200 A.R. points!
Each month Ellis County Farm Bureau sends a video about an agriculture topic to Mrs. Burd's 4th, 5th and 6th grade classes. This month the topic was eggs. Mattie, a student intern at Farm Bureau, came to visit our classroom! She showed us a video, and then did a science experiment with an egg. She placed the egg in vinegar. A few days later we took the egg out to discover that the shell was gone, and the egg now felt rubbery!
The 2022-2023 USD 388 School Calendar has been approved.
Track Coaches Needed!
We need a JH head track coach and a HS head track coach. If you are interested, please contact Derek Schoenthaler at 785-726-3151.
