🦅✨ Inside the Eagle’s Nest ✨🦅
First and foremost, we would like to wish all of our amazing moms a very Happy Mother’s Day! 💐❤️ Thank you for the love, support, encouragement, and care you pour into your children each and every day. We appreciate all that you do!
We also want to give a HUGE shout-out during Staff Appreciation Week to our incredible PTO for making our staff feel so loved and celebrated all week long! 🌟 From delicious breakfasts 🍳, beautiful flowers 🌸, sweet ice cream treats 🍦, tasty lunches 🥪, and some fun-filled trivia games 🎉—your kindness and generosity truly mean so much to us. We are beyond grateful for your continued support and appreciation. THANK YOU for always taking such wonderful care of our staff! 💙🦅
Congratulations to our Star Eagles - Philip Long and Cal Bonner! We are so proud of you!
There has been so much creativity and learning happening inside the Eagle’s Nest this week! Kindergarten students had a blast tie-dyeing and showing off their colorful creations. 🌈👕 Our 5th graders put their creativity and teamwork to work while learning the art of flower arranging. 💐
We also captured some great moments from Friday afternoon’s trivia fun, filled with laughter, teamwork, and friendly competition! 🤩🧠
Meanwhile, our 4th grade students have been hard at work building relationships through STEM activities while also practicing good sportsmanship and teamwork along the way. 🔬🛠️👏 It’s always wonderful to see our students learning important life skills while having fun together.
Every day inside the Eagle’s Nest is filled with learning, laughter, creativity, and connection—and we love sharing those special moments with all of you! 💙🦅
Happy Administrative Professionals Year! 💙
Okay, technically there’s a designated “week” for celebrating administrative professionals… but let’s be honest — the job they do deserves a standing ovation ALL year long! 👏🏻
Somehow, they keep the phones answered, the paperwork handled, the schedules straight, the bus routes organized, and every report submitted on time… all while managing the daily chaos with grace, patience, and probably a little caffeine. 😅
A HUGE thank you to Miss Yvonne and Miss Hallie for everything they do to keep our district moving and grooving in the right direction every single day. Their hard work, organization, positivity, and ability to perform miracles before lunch do not go unnoticed! Whoop! 🙌🏻
Let’s face it — without them, half of us would be late, lost, missing paperwork, and wondering why the copier is flashing mysterious error codes again. 😉
They are both absolutely awesome — period!

THE GOOD STUFF… 💙
For those questioning whether the hairstyles in our window pics were actually authentic 90’s fashion statements… well, the evidence has arrived. And honestly? The resemblance is almost suspiciously accurate, especially in the case of Miss Cindy, whose hair appears to have been personally styled by a combination of Aqua Net, humidity, and pure 1990’s confidence. 🙌🏻
Pretty spot on, if we do say so ourselves. 😉

The GOOD STUFF… 💙
We had a pretty sweet afternoon celebrating our Seniors!
Our eight seniors had the opportunity to introduce themselves to the entire student body and share their accomplishments and accolades. Mrs. Hartle did an incredible job highlighting each student and recognizing what makes them special.
One of the most meaningful parts of the afternoon was hearing the advice our seniors shared with younger students. Their messages were simple and honest:
* Take advantage of activities and opportunities while you can.
* Get your homework done and turn it in on time.
* Have fun and enjoy the journey.
It really is that simple.
The afternoon was filled with pride, gratitude, and reflection. Our seniors represented themselves with humility, kindness, and character, and we couldn’t be more proud of them. 💙

Special Board of Education Meeting Notice
Brussels Springfest, sponsored by the National Honor Society members, delivered a full day of fun, food, and friendly competition! 🥇 From burgers (thanks, Mady!) and fries (shoutout to Camryn!) to intense rounds of musical chairs, a cracker-eating contest championed by Thor, and spirited volleyball games, there was something for everyone! The ultimate victory went to the BIG DOGS—the seniors—who brought the energy and claimed the win! A special thank you to Levi, who was the first to arrive and lend a hand (on his birthday, no less!)! And of course, none of this would be possible without our rockstar coordinator, Mrs. Johnes, whose leadership made the day unforgettable!! BIG THANKS to ALL WHO PLAYED A PART! 💙

The 8th-grade excursion brought together teamwork, culture, and a little “can we solve this in time?” fun!
Our students worked through an escape room challenge and enjoyed learning about Mexican cuisine and traditions. Though small in size, this class is strong in connection and truly enjoys being together. 💙
Thank you to Mrs. Long, Mrs. Gilbreth, and Miss Stephens for creating such a memorable experience! 🥰

Students experienced art up close, made connections to history and culture, and even discovered a few new favorites along the way.
