Mrs. Traci Smith's 4th Hour Native American History students at Wellington Middle School have been busy painting pictographs on "buffalo hides". They have also been constructing tipis (teepees) - a very hands on and creative activity for the Knights!
The Eisenhower Eagles made the grandest of entrances today - football players from both Wellington High School and Wellington Middle School greeted the young students out in front of the school as they marched in for their Character Trait Assembly! Cade Phelps, Logan Jones and Chi Barton, all Varsity IRONDUKES, shared their positive messages with the younger kids about working hard, trustworthiness, etc..how cool is that?

SEPTEMBER 2017 BOE MEETING SUMMARY
KRR for 2017-2018 is Going Strong! We are just beginning Week 3 and have full enrollment at Kennedy, Lincoln, and Washington. The students are participating in Fun and Hands-on activities to enhance their reading and having fun staying physically active.
The annual Washington Elementary "Jog-A-Thon" was held Friday between 17th & 18th Streets on Washington Ave. Students receive pledges from both individuals and businesses for "per lap jogged", their laps are kept track of by jog-a-thon officials and in the end not only have they participated in a great physical activity, they've raised monies for their school's technology budget. The staff and students at Washington greatly appreciate all of the support they receive from individuals and groups for this endeavor.
