Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, will there be enough room? Mrs. Willey's preschoolers kicked off their Trees study with a fun and engaging challenge! Students were tasked with building their very own trees and seeing just how many letters they could balance on top. The activity turned into a lesson in perseverance as, each time a tree toppled, the class would cheer together, βOh No! Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!β Then, without missing a beat, theyβd start building again.

Cardinals are Safe, Respectful, and Responsible! We are PROUD of you!



Did you know...Childrenβs mental health is important. Students who miss just 2 days of school a month tend to be more stressed and anxious.
Help lower student stress by encouraging attendance when students are feeling well.


Kindergarten students ended their unit on Nursery Rhymes with the "Nursery Rhyme Olympics!" Students put Humpty Dumpty back together, tossed "stars" into buckets and many more activities! They ended in the gym with a reenactment of The Tortoise and the Hare.









On Friday, September 13, the preschool students from Mrs. Muff's class ventured up to the Crete Community Nature Explore Classroom (located on the south side of the Doane College campus.) They explored the nature classroom as well as a few other exciting activities with Doane education students participating in Science Methods. This is a great experience for the children, and itβs a wonderful place to explore and use nature as our teaching tool.










Good evening, Crete Public School families. This is a reminder that there will be no school tomorrow, Monday, September 16. Enjoy the day and stay safe! We look forward to seeing all our students back on Tuesday, September 17. Go Cards!
We are PROUD of you, Cardinals!
