New Season, New Crew: Youth Girls Basketball Sign-Ups Open! We are looking for grade school girls to join our upcoming basketball team! You don’t need to be the tallest, fastest, or most experienced player on the floor. Youth sports aren't just about the final score—they’re about building teamwork, growing confidence, laughing with friends, and learning that it's okay to make mistakes and try again. • Who can play: Grades 3rd and 4th • Registration deadline: 12/01/26 Whether your daughter wants to try a brand-new sport or get back on the court with her friends, we’d love to have her.

❤️ Celebrating Principal Appreciation Month! ❤️ October is Principal Appreciation Month, and we want to take a moment to recognize and thank our incredible principals for all they do for our students, staff, families, and school community! Being a principal is more than a job. It means showing up early, staying late, making difficult decisions, celebrating successes, supporting others through challenges, and always putting students first. So much of what principals do happens behind the scenes, but the impact they make is felt throughout our schools every single day. We also want to extend a special thank-you to their families! ❤️ Thank you for sharing your loved ones with our school community, for understanding the late nights, long hours, interrupted plans, and the emotional investment that comes with school leadership. Your patience, encouragement, and unwavering support make a difference and do not go unnoticed. To Mr. Skolek, Mr. Wiertel, and their families, thank you for your dedication, your sacrifices, and your commitment to making a difference in the lives of others. We appreciate you more than you know! Way to be D2E ❤️🤍
