Veterans Day - Help Us Create a Wall of Honor! We are proud to honor the brave men and women who have served our country by creating a Wall of Honor in our school! We invite families to send in copies of photos of family members who are veterans so we can recognize and celebrate their service.
Please include the following information with each photo:
  • Veteran’s Name

Thank you for helping us honor the heroes in our school community and teach our students the importance of recognizing those who have served our country.   Please submit all photos by November 10 for display on the wall.  

Pokemon Trading Card & Game Club - November 2026 Wednesdays through March 2027 Wednesdays that school is in session!

Any 3rd-6th graders who would like to participate must have a completed Parent Consent - Pokemon/Game Club 26-27 -  You will only need to complete one form per student.

We know that students may have sports or other extracurricular activities that may conflict with the club time; students are encouraged to attend when they are able. Mr. Vince also indicated that any Robotics Club students interested in also attending the Pokemon/Board/Card Game Club are permitted.

STEM - Mid-Michigan chapter of Graduate Women in Science is inviting students to the 2027 Girls Math and Science Day at MSU on Saturday, March 20th, 2027. This is a fantastic opportunity for middle school-aged students to participate in STEM demonstrations led by some of MSU's enthusiastic and knowledgeable students and researchers.  All students are welcome!

This year, they want students to see and experience more types of STEM fields throughout the day, with the ability to revisit an activity as many times as they like. Therefore, the day for each participant will consist of two faculty talks, two 20-minute STEM-themed activities according to the student preference, a science fair-like session with a scavenger hunt, an afternoon snack, and an ice cream social with a gift bag giveaway and thank-you note signing. 

Registration and attendance are FREE of cost and will be open from Feb 01st - 28th   The link below will open on Feb 1st to register students:
