Please contact the school office at 309-367-2528 if interested or need more information.
Final Noisy Bucket Update!
The students managed to bring coins and donate $94 in coins!! Mrs. Noble is going to make up that last little difference to bring us over the edge to $100! She’s going to write a letter and a check and send it to the local charity center: Open Arms Food Pantry!
Thank you so much to everyone who donated! The 1st grade class came in at the end and gave us a large donation! I hope all the students are extremely proud of their almsgiving and will continue to have generous spirits through the Easter Season! God Bless you all!! -Mrs. Noble

AHG Announcement
Just a reminder that our next meeting will be April 13th due to Spring Break. We will be finishing up the Our Flag badge and our Joining Award requirements!
Explorer parents: Please have your daughter bring in her final Our Flag activity to complete her badge. They only need to present one item from the list that is NOT the military funeral requirement. We will be doing that one at our April meeting.
We will be having an awards ceremony to finish our first year in May. More details to come.
Please be on the lookout for our End of the Year survey in the coming weeks. We would like everyone’s opinion to help us plan a great year for the 2026-2027 school year.
