4K classes enjoyed a beautiful day learning and visiting with our awesome local emergency workers on Thursday! A huge thank you to Officer Laehn for helping to organize this wonderful event. Additionally, thank you to the Buffalo County Sheriff's Office, Mondovi Fire Department, Mondovi Police Department, and Mondovi Area Ambulance Service for teaching our youngest buffaloes about your super cool jobs and letting them experience what it's like to be a police officer, EMT, and firefighter! It was a great day!

2nd Grade recently attended a Young People's Concert hosted by the MN Orchestra. The program was titled Musical Wonders of the World. It explored the connection between music and nature and featured music was inspired by the many unique ecosystems and topographies around the world.
We have been focusing on a new character trait each month in the elementary. In February we focused on KINDNESS and in March our trait was TRUSTWORTHY. We had an assembly to recognize one student in each grade level and one staff member that best modeled those traits. Congrats to our winners!
Ms. Thompson's First Graders had fun in math graphing and adding with Lucky Charms Marshmallows!
The entire elementary school has been focusing on kindness for the month of February. The 5k-2nd graders have been working really hard to show kindness in the cafeteria and have had a chance to earn pink buffalo slips which get put in a drawing to sit at the fun tables in the back.
Congrats to the winners from the last two weeks! We appreciate the kindness that you have shown to others!
First Grade 100th Day Fun!
Midwest Dental was busy! We had a visit in first grade also!
Mrs. Kitchner's PM 4K class has sure enjoyed having Keira (a high school service learning student) join their class this trimester. Keira did a wonderful job assisting and playing with students, and helping Mrs. Kitchner with daily classroom needs. Thank you, Keira! You will be missed! ❤️🐝
Mrs. Kitchner's PM 4K class taste tested lemons and limes also. They voted for the lemon to be the tastiest, although they thought both were WAY too sour! 😝🍋🍋🟩
Mrs. Kitchner's AM 4K classes taste tested lemons and limes and voted on which fruit they liked best. Although both fruits tasted very sour (notice their faces!), lemon was the favorite! 🍋😝
A huge "thank you" to Dr. Kayla Schreiner and assistant Kaitlyn from Midwest Dental for visiting our 4K classes and teaching them about keeping their teeth clean and healthy!

The elementary school has spent the last few months focusing on GRATITUDE and GROWTH MINDSET. Friday we had an assembly to recognize the student in each grade who best modeled those traits. We also recognized some staff members who do an amazing job with these traits as well. Congratulations to the winners. 🥳
First grade students were excited to have the opportunity to experiment with coding robot cars. This engaging STEM lesson connects with our ELA unit about robots at work.
