Congratulations to the class of 2025! We welcomed back a group of former Wanamaker students today. They started the morning with breakfast and a chance to visit their former teachers in the library. They then walked the halls in their caps and gowns while current students cheered them on. Finally, they met with the 6th grade students to answer questions and talk about their futures, and rounded out the morning by playing on the playground. :)
We are all so proud of you and are excited to see all the wonderful things you will do.
It was an exciting end to the week as 60 students (a record number for us!) and 14 staff members battled it out in the Battle of the Books competition! They worked in teams to answer questions and identify quotes from this year's William Allen White books, a total of 17 books. They should be so proud of their hard work, perseverance, and teamwork! Way to go, Mustang readers! 📖 Thank you to all who helped in any way to make this happen!
Topeka Rescue Mission Ministries
We are blown away by the generosity and teamwork of six amazing students from Wanamaker Elementary School! These young leaders took the initiative to organize a fundraiser for the Topeka Rescue Mission — making calls to Crumbl and Nothing Bundt Cakes to secure delicious donations, planning a three-day sale… and selling out in just 15 minutes!
It took the unique skills of every team member to make it all happen, and we’re so grateful for your hard work and hearts to serve. Thank you for being such an inspiring example of what compassion and collaboration can do. You are truly loving in the gap — and making a difference in the lives of those who need it most. 💛
Today at 1:45pm and tomorrow at 2pm, we are having our annual Battle of the Books! You are welcome to attend, but it is not mandatory. You can also livestream the competition through this link. https://meet.google.com/oan-juqt-pnr
Let the battle begin!
