The Topeka Zoo is hosting a Writing and Art Contest! Students were encouraged to write a fictional story or create an art piece raising awareness of any real-life conservation issue (habitat loss, poaching, climate change, threatened and endangered species, and more). These kiddos chose to create art projects and have been working hard on them for several weeks. Launched by the Topeka Zoo’s High School EcoClub, the art contest is in its 5th year! Students could submit any kind of art
(drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, etc.). The projects will be on display at the Topeka Zoo on April 18th and winners will be announced on Facebook Live earlier in the week. Good luck!
Huge thank you to the Washburn University basketball players and Envista Credit Union for helping us celebrate our Blue Jay Perseverance Award winners! 💙🏀
Your support meant so much to our students! 💛
Jay Shideler 3rd graders had a special experience meeting an author today in the library.
W. Bruce Cameron, author of Zeus: Water Rescue, visited and shared what it’s like to be a writer, along with stories behind his books. His book is also a William Allen White Award finalist, making the visit even more exciting.
We love bringing real-world reading connections to our students!
Perseverance: never giving up, even when tasks are difficult, boring, or take a long time to finish. Congrats BlueJays!
Help us celebrate our amazing paraeducators and teacher aides with a Rockstar Appreciation Day on Thursday, April 2. We are so thankful to have such an amazing and dedicated staff!
