Today we are celebrating the incredible team behind the scenes who keep our students fueled and ready to learn! 🌟
From the early morning prep to the friendly smiles in the serving line, our cafeteria staff are more than just cooks—they are superheroes in aprons. They navigate allergies, picky eaters, and tight schedules, all while making sure every child gets a nutritious meal with a side of kindness. 🥄✨

🌲 Forest Fridays are BACK! 🌲
We are so excited that our preschoolers are heading back to Doane this spring for one of our absolute favorite traditions!
There is nothing quite like seeing our youngest learners explore the great outdoors. This incredible collaboration with Doane University provides such a rich, hands-on educational experience, and our students (and staff!) look forward to.
From discovering local nature to building teamwork skills in the fresh air, Forest Fridays are more than just a field trip—they’re where some of our best memories are made! 🍃✨
Check out these smiles from our first outing! 📸👇
