Exciting things happening in our lunchroom!
Gay Anderson, SFSD Director of Child Nutrition, was here today. She had the opportunity to talk with students about their favorite (and least favorite) school lunches!
We’re also thrilled to share that we’ve launched a new lunchroom system with two serving stations to help things flow faster — and our students absolutely rocked it! Now everyone is through the serving lines and ready to eat in a flash!
A huge thank you to our very own Dawn Stoakes for her hard work, creativity, and vision in making this happen! Less time waiting in line and more time to eat...that's a winning combo for our kids!

🇺🇸 Honoring Our Veterans 🇺🇸
Today, our school held a heartfelt assembly to celebrate and honor our Veterans. Students proudly introduced the Veterans who joined us, showing appreciation for their courage and service.
A special surprise made the day even more memorable — our 4th-grade students were recognized by the VFW for their respectful behavior during the VFW Flag Etiquette training. The 4th grade teachers and Dr. Vik were honored by the Veterans for their work in creating a wonderful school full of respectful students! Each of them was presented with the US VFW Challenge Coin in recognition!
Thank you to all who served and currently serve and to our students and staff for making this celebration so meaningful.

El Día de los Muertos Altar at School
Today, we had the opportunity to immerse ourselves in Hispanic culture by creating a Día de los Muertos altar at our school. Following tradition, we placed a candle, a glass of water, and a piece of bread — dedicated to those who passed tragically or without a final meal.
This experience allowed us to learn, connect, and appreciate a tradition filled with love, reflection, and respect for those who came before us.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped bring this altar to life — your time, creativity, and collaboration made this a meaningful cultural celebration for our school community.
Que su memoria y nuestras tradiciones sigan vivas siempre.
