FES students earned another Cougar Way Reward. Students decorated May Day boxes and wrote notes this morning. Then, students delivered their May Day boxes to houses in Fredericksburg. Students had fun knocking on the door and running away before they were caught! Thank you to Miss Henniges and Mr. Schmitz for driving the bus for us. FES students delivered 100 boxes to spread kindness in our community. Happy May Day!
Sumner-Fredericksburg Board of Education has named Kevin Seney our next Superintendent!
Happy School Principals' Day to Miss Hoth from her minions! Her organizational skills are top-notch, and she loves her Google Calendar to keep her minions in order. She got her start in Texas, and they say things are BIGGER in Texas...but we hope she is remembering that everything is BETTER in Iowa! #fieldsofopportunities

First grade took a field trip to Twin Ponds Nature Center today. We were able to hold a snake and see a kind of turtle that Matt Crayne said he has not seen at the park in over 5 years! We had a great time looking around the nature trails at different plants, including bedstraw, which we found out would stick to Miss Njus’ sweatshirt. It was a great day!
On Wednesday, April 24, 4th grade got to take an exciting trip to Osborne Conservation Center near Elkader. While they were there, students got to see and learn about the native animals of Iowa, including a black bear, wolf, and turtles. They also went on a walk around the old town of Osborne where they visited a general store, log cabin, and a schoolhouse. Hiking on the trails, skipping rocks, and doing a scavenger hunt were also on the top of the list of most fun activities they did that day.
This past Friday, the boys track team came to Durant to excite the students for another day of learning. This has been one of the most energetic and fun groups we have had yet and they certainly did a great job putting smiles on students and subs faces as the entered the building!
