Jay Shideler Elementary

Many thanks to Myron Roker, a World War II veteran and Purple Heart recipient, who spoke to our 5th graders about serving in France and Germany from February 1943 until November 1945.

Our first grade students participated in a Monarch Butterfly education program at the Kansas History Museum. Everyone had fun learning to catch, tag and release the butterflies in order to track their migration. Our students were able to tag 31 butterflies. Way to go First Grade!

Myron Roker remembers Feb. 26, 1943, as if it was yesterday.

Families with children of all ages will have a blast at this 1-hour musical comedy!
