Ms. Liz's class had a few Student Kiwanis Readers stop in this week! They both did an INCREDIBLE job. Way to go Bryn and Shane!!! 😀📚❤️
The Kiwanis Club Egg Hunt will be in the Cardinal Elementary gym tomorrow, Saturday, March 23rd at 10:00 am. This is a change of location, it had previously been scheduled at the Middle School. We look forward to seeing you at this event tomorrow.
Cardinal Elementary Families,
Today will be a virtual learning day. Please complete the "must do" activities for Day 2 in the virtual learning packets and return them with your child on Monday, March 25th. A reminder that this will count towards their attendance for today. Teachers will be available online through the ROOMS app if you have any questions. Enjoy the spring snow day and stay safe!
Maquoketa Families,
We will have a two hour delay today, Friday, March 22nd. The Maquoketa area seems to be in a pocket of a more dense snow than some of the areas around us. Thank You for your understanding and patience.
The peer reading going on in Mrs. Trusty’s first grade classroom has been amazing!
Talented and Gifted students in kindergarten finished their Project Lead the Way casts when learning about the structure and function of the human body.
Talented and Gifted students in grades 1st through 5th continued their population genetics learning by watching a live virtual wolf experience through International Wolf Center in Ely, Minnesota.
Preschool Registration for the 2024-2025 school year is now OPEN! Come learn with us!!! 🤩❤️🤓

One more week to go until Kindergarten Round-Up!
Mrs. Hardin's class has been participating in the Read Across Iowa literacy unit during the month of March. Last week they finished reading the books, My Families Dairy Farm, and How to Make Ice Cream. Students also wrote about their favorite dairy products and made pudding parfaits and homemade ice cream.
This week we celebrated the end of the Kid's Heart Challenge. We had 51 students participate in the challenge and brought in $1,865. Dollars raised help fund community initiatives, education, research and quality of care – all to fight the No. 1 killer in the world, heart disease. The votes were in and Mr. Shipper was selected to take a pie in the face. Thanks for being a team player Mr. Schipper!
