This week's CWNK news report (https://youtu.be/YSf56798GDM?si=9pn0Rw8FkLtllkhR) is filled with some exciting events as we wrap up the end of the year. I would also like to share some things that are happening toward the end of the month that parents are invited to attend. We look forward to celebrating the many accomplishments of our students and staff as we say goodbye for the summer break.

Happy School Bus Driver Appreciation Day. Thank You to all of our bus drivers at Maquoketa CSD for transporting our students safely to school and home each day! You are such an important part of our students' school experience and you make a positive difference in our community!
Some first graders in Ms. Denger's class wrote speeches to be mayor of Kidtown! One student even gave a special treat to encourage classmates to vote for him! 👏🏻
Thank you to all those that were able to donate blood this afternoon. We greatly appreciate your generosity.
