Maquoketa Families,
We are implementing all of our tornado protocols until the tornado warning passes. If your student has not been picked up on the bus we will wait until after the storm passes.

Today we celebrated preschool graduation at Cardinal Elementary! Congrats to our morning graduates!








Congratulations to our afternoon preschool graduates at Cardinal Elementary!

Maquoketa Families,
I hope you are all safe after the storm. We will have school as normal today. If you need staff to be aware of any situation regarding your student and effects of the storm (ex. damage at your home), please reach out to your child's teacher or principal.

THANK YOU MSB for all you do!








Mrs. Johnson's 2nd grade had 2 special readers this week!
Grace Coyle, our Ed Leadership student, finished her day with us by reading aloud to the students! Grace was a great helper! The kids loved extra reading or math practice with her!
Kerri Shultz, our Kiwanis reader, has visited us monthly and has shared some really good read alouds with us!



Briggs art club kids made symmetrical sculptures using stips of paper.





Maquoketa Families,
All after school events/games will be cancelled for this evening, Tuesday, May 21st due to the potential of severe weather. The After School Program at Briggs will also be cancelled for tonight. Thank You.
