Our very own Will Ponder—JAG instructor at PHS—is presenting at the Pratt Public Library tonight at 6:00.

The PHS band is playing for our 4th graders to encourage them to become part of the Greenback Band family.

Look who’s in the house w our 4th graders! Travis Theis. Greenback star power, baby!

Mr Brown is running our PAC/LMS robotics challenge to determine our six participants in a competition in OKC. Parent support and Mr Brown’s effort allows this program to challenge students problem solving skills and grow grit.

Thank you to SW PTO who contributed $30K towards our PAC Upper Elementary playground. They are at afternoon recess today and enjoying the beautiful weather. They also have the turf football field to play on and there is another playground in front of the Frogdome.

Rylan Rockenbach and Owen Schmidt were honored as PHS students of the month at Rotary. They knocked it out of the park!

The PHS Band and the Cheerleaders are rocking the house in the Frogdome for today’s pep assembly.

It’s Art class (one of the specials) at the PAC.

The PHS Cheerleaders are breaking out some throwback cheer uniforms for tonight’s game at the Frogdome vs Larned. They held a pep assembly today and it was loud.

Mr Stegman’s biology class is dissecting sharks. I really wanted to play the Jaws theme music.

LMS students in Mrs McAllister’s PE class are playing a morphed version of pickle ball and badminton.

At the LMS Lagoon (the library) Mrs Fletcher has created a Book Blind Date. The books are wrapped but have reviews and a genre label. Students unwrap their book and read 20 pages to decide if they commit to the book. It’s a great idea for building reading excitement.

Adreanna Alexa Garcia-Pedroza does a Gratitude Walk w me this morning and she’s got a great story about grit.

I have Allison Deda for a Gratitude Walk—she’s way more awake 1st hour than I was as a HS senior.

Katherine Jack and Allee Hopkins represented PHS at Rotary today as students of the month. They did an excellent job!

Mrs Barton, Fortune, and Simon’s classes went caroling on Thursday.

I love the book Christmas trees at the LMS Library (Lagoon).

Mrs Barker’s class is hard at work on projects.

Harper Fortune showed me her quilt and Riley Cramer is on chapter 10 of a book she is writing in Mrs Schumacher’s enrichment class at the PAC.

PAC parents have put together an amazing setup for our Christmas dinner with 4th and 5th graders tonight.
