The high school came to help 2nd and 3rd grade with their clay project! It was amazing to see them interact with the elementary students.
Mrs. Smith's classroom was asked to make valentine decorations for the Iowa Quilt Museum. They made quilted hearts. ❤️
We are thrilled to announce an exciting addition to our school community, Chief!
We are committed to providing a safe and enriching educational experience for all of our students, and we believe that the Therapy Dog Program will contribute significantly to achieving this goal. Our therapy dog, Chief, will be accompanied by a trained handler, Mrs. Roberts, and will be available to interact with students during designated times throughout the school day.

Yesterday the elementary celebrated the 💯th Day of School!
⚽ It's soccer sign up time! 🥅
WES celebrated the 100th day today! Students participated in a scavenger hunt to find 100 paws to complete the hundreds chart.
Please see the information below that was distributed by the Winterset P.D. for drop off and pick up procedures at the elementary.
*Circle Drive Drop Off* For parents who will be dropping their children off at the "circle drive" at the Elementary, we kindly ask that you enter the circle drive from the north and not from the south. This will avoid any traffic congestion in the northbound lane and will allow the school buses to make their pick-ups and drop offs on time. Please do not block the crosswalk at W. South St & S. 4th Ave and make sure your vehicle is stopped closest to the curb when waiting in line.
❄️Second grade had the best day playing in the perfect weather for building snowmen and forts, and sliding down the huge snow piles!❄️
