West Nodaway prom has been canceled at this time. We will evaluate the situation moving forward.
Mrs. McGinness’s class had a zoom meeting this morning. It was amazing getting to see their faces. If you ever need a pick me up you can always count on them. 💙 🚀
Featured in today's Rockets From a Distance, we're featuring none other than our art teacher, Mrs. Kristine Price!

While we're apart, we thought it might be nice to share a little bit about what we're doing now that we're all at home with our families! Well, when we're not thinking about all of you and doing school from a distance.
Up first... Mrs. Jennifer McGinness!
Fifth grade held a morning meeting on Flip Grid! We hope to see more friends next time! #socialdistancing #checkinonyourfriends
Reading Tip: Read books that are also movies. Students need to be able to compare/contrast. Watch/read, then discuss how the characters and storylines were same/different. Which did you enjoy more and why? Go to: https://imaginationsoup.net/childrens-books-adapted-movies/
Kindergarten had fun catching up with friends on Zoom!!

Mrs. Grace's Reading Tip: Incorporate sight word/spelling/math practice into your favorite family board games like Candyland or Connect 4. Draw a card, read it, work it out, and take a turn! Adjust the level of skill to your kids. Be creative and have fun while learning! #missyou

I love Julia Cook books, and I know many of our elementary students do too. So, I was thrilled to see that she'll be reading a book aloud on Facebook every Monday and Friday at 9 am! They'll stay up for a few days, so you can watch them at a time that works for you. - Mrs. Bell

During this time of social distancing, it seems to me that a kindness journal is just the spark of positivity we could all use! Luckily, there's a free one available at deepkindnessjournal.com. It asks for an email, but that's all. As a sneak preview, here's day one!
Thank you to the Burlington Junction Methodist and Christian churches on serving close to 45 kids lunches the last few days. What great community pride and assistance we have. School looks forward to helping out more next week and the weeks ahead!
