Fall in Iowa means daily temps that range from heavy jackets in the morning to tanks and tees by the afternoon! It also means that our Lost & Found is growing. All of the found items are displayed on a table in our main hallway over P/T Conferences. See something that belongs to your student? Have them stop by the table to pick it up or pick it up when you’re in the building for our Lunch with Loved Ones event or P/T Conferences.
