📢 Absentee Alert System Notice

We are currently experiencing issues with our absentee alert system. Normally, if your child is marked absent and we have not received a call from you explaining their absence, you would receive a phone call from the school.

Unfortunately, that system is temporarily not working. We are working to resolve the issue and apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this may cause.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

The FFA Labor Auction is about to start. Thanks to everyone that is here to help out our FFA!

🎉 A HUGE shoutout to Elm Creek senior Courtney Jensen for scoring an impressive 32 on the ACT in October! Courtney’s outstanding achievement earns her a spot on the 30+ Record Board and the ACT Wall of Fame (32+)! Way to go, Courtney! We are so proud of you! 💙💛🦬

Tonight is the night, we can't wait to see everyone this evening for our FFA Labor Auction. Thank you for supporting our FFA members!

Today Mrs. Schopke's 3rd graders played a few rounds of musical chairs, which included practicing their spelling words! We all enjoyed getting in some extra movements/music and the extra spelling practice!

Look what's happening at the greenhouse. A big THANK YOU to Bauer Underground for doing the boring work and getting our gas line installed and hooked up! This will expand learning opportunities for our students in the cold months!🙌🪴🦬

Elm Creek FFA will be hosting our labor auction on Thursday evening at 6:30pm. Please join us in the vintage gym for a soup supper followed by the auction. We are auctioning off 4 hours of each members time, which can be redeemed by the buyer at any time over the next year. All proceeds go to funding our FFA chapter for the year and help us cover expenses such as room/board at State and National Convention, entry fees for contests, meals, and awards at our end of the year banquet. We will also have 30 mums for sale that were grown by our plant science class. The Labor Auction and Plant Sales will serve as our only fundraisers for the 26-27 school year. We look forward to seeing everyone and can’t wait to help you “Buy a Buff”!
