✨ On Thursday, our OES entrance was transformed into a bubble wonderland to celebrate Absolutely Incredible Kid Day! Watching the joy and wonder on the students' faces as they walked through a cascade of bubbles was truly a sight to behold. What a magical start to the day! 💫
Today, Amie and Dave Breuklander visited OES kindergarteners in Ms. Lemke's class to teach them about World Down Syndrome Day. Amie and David read a story about how kids with Down syndrome are more like all of us than different. They also gave goodie bags to each kindergarten student, and the students loved receiving their mismatched socks. It was a great day celebrating a very special girl!
Recently, Jill DeBruin from the local Farm Bureau visited Ms. Evans' 4th grade class. She presented to the students about agriculture, the life cycle of chickens, and their importance!
Some of Ms. Evans’ 4th grade students that are in orchestra wanted to learn and perform the Happy Birthday song. So when it was a student's birthday, they could play it for everyone to sing along! This was very special and fun for the students!
🍪 A Sweet Gesture! Kallie, one of our OES students, spread joy with a donation of Girl Scout cookies to our hardworking staff. Your kindness is truly appreciated, Kallie! 🙌
Miss Trainer's 2nd grade class enjoyed making butter to end Module 2 of Wit and Wisdom. Module 2 was all about life in the early American West, so making butter went hand in hand with the curriculum.

Kindergarteners at OES enjoyed an extra outpouring of love earlier this month when each student received their own quilt from local seamstress Eileen Holub! Quilting has been a part of Eileen's life since she was a little girl watching her grandmother sew quilt blocks. Now grown and a grandmother herself, she brought the family tradition full-circle when she gave a quilt to every student and teacher in her granddaughter’s year at school.
