Elementary Spotlight!
Our school has so many great teachers and staff members. This wonderful group of people runs the elementary daily with kindness and warmth.
Niki Jones works hard as our K-6 Secretary; Jennifer Zirkle assists with office work and runs the health services for K-12; and Assistant Principal, Brent Meister, is also the Special Education Director. Our school really couldn't do it without each of you!

Teacher Spotlight! Our school has so many great teachers and staff members.
Ms. Christensen has been teaching for seven years. One of her favorite classes to teach is the Leadership class. “Teaching Leadership as an elective this year has allowed us to bridge our middle/high student leadership program to the elementary grades. The leadership class and ASB officers had been working directly with elementary students to implement a K-12 leadership program. It's been fun to watch the students work together and see the elementary students advocating for their classes,” says Ms. Christensen.
