On March 14th, our 4th graders traveled to Maple Sweet Dairy with our FFA high School buddies.

Last week our Elementary School held it's Spring Dance.... Disco Style! A huge thank you to all the staff, volunteers and families that came out in full support of this fun event! A special Shout-Out goes to Burger King for donating some crowns for our kiddos and a big thanks goes to DJ McP for running the music for the night!
Check out this amazing 4th grader who traded in his Purple Ticket prize to serve his classmates at lunchtime. We recognize the good choices our students make by giving them a "Thumbs Up" Purple Ticket. If their name is pulled, they are announced on the Daily Buzz and they get to chose a prize. This great kid chose to be a helper in the lunchroom!
On Thursday February 16th the second graders traveled to the farm Discovery Center in Manitowoc with our FFA high School buddies.

We are so incredibly proud of our Denmark Elementary School Community! The Elementary Student Council collected 5 large totes of hygiene supplies during their Scrub-a-Dub-Dub event.

Our First Graders had a wonderful time at Discovery Farms last week! There was lots to learn and explore, and even a brand new baby calf was born during their visit! Thank you to the FFA volunteers for overseeing this great field trip for our students!
Our Secret Santa Shoppe is off to a wonderful Start! Our students have enjoyed shopping for their families and can't wait to give their gifts to the ones they love this Christmas. Shopping will continue through the end of the week for anyone who missed their scheduled time.
