We know the calendar says autumn, but it sure doesn’t feel like it! 🍂☀️ Our students are soaking up the sunshine while they can and tailoring their learning to the beautiful weather. Come January, we’ll be wishing for days like this!

🌟 ACES High Flyers Character Program 🌟
This month our focus has been on the character trait Respect. Today, Principal Holcumbrink proudly recognized three students who consistently model respect in our school community. 💙💛
We are so proud of our ACES students for demonstrating what it means to treat others with kindness, consideration, and integrity. Way to go, High Flyers! ✈️👏

🎒🌾 Our 4th graders had a wonderful day exploring Ford’s Farm in Andrew County! Students enjoyed hands-on learning, outdoor fun, and experiencing one of our county’s beautiful public-use areas. 🐟🌳
Big thanks to the Andrew County Commission for maintaining such a valuable community space where students can learn and grow outside the classroom.

🍎🍂 Happy First Week of Fall! 🎃🍁
Our students dove headfirst into the new season this week with our "All Things Fall" theme! We're learning important concepts with hands-on fun, exploring everything from:
Apples: Counting, tasting, and even graphing our favorites!
Pumpkins: Measuring circumference and discussing lifecycles.
Leaves: Learning about color changes and the science of photosynthesis.
...and lots of seasonal fun that ties it all together!

There were so many students and families gathered at our school flagpole this morning for See You at the Pole! The national theme for this year, "Awe," based on Habakkuk 3:2, truly came to life as we stood together in prayer. It was an awesome sight to see our student leaders doing a fantastic job of organizing and leading this powerful event. What a great way to start the day and the school year!

🌿✨ Our ACES had an amazing day on their field trip to the conservation area! Students explored trails, observed wildlife, and learned about the importance of protecting nature right here in Northwest Missouri. 🦉🌳🐾
Hands-on experiences like this remind us how valuable our natural resources are and how much there is to discover right in our own backyard. 💚
