Check out this week's Tomahawk of the Week, Kailey Raynor!

Kailey Raynor is a natural choice for Tomahawk of the Week! When Caitlin Hunter went out on maternity leave, Kailey stepped in with both feet and embraced the role of lead teacher with confidence and heart. Her positive, happy spirit is contagious, and she brings energy and encouragement to everyone around her. Kailey truly loves kids, and it shows in the way she connects with them and supports them each day. She is hardworking, dependable, and always willing to jump in wherever she’s needed. Kailey’s natural leadership and servant heart make a lasting impact on her students and team, and we are so lucky to have her!

🔦This week we are spotlighting Ms. Boineau's Class!

This week we started our space unit! We learned all about where Earth's place is in the universe. We looked at a simulation to see how in the universe, there is the Milky Way Galaxy and then in the Galaxy lies the solar system and in the solar system we have lots of planets, including earth and the sun being at the center. Students got an opportunity to show their learning into a diagram showing where Earth is.

Over the past two weeks, we’ve had a very special visitor at our school! 🦷

Ms. Johnnie from Laxer, Long and Savage has been here spending time with our kindergarten and 1st grade students teaching them all about dental health and what to expect when they visit the dentist.

Our students had so much fun learning in hands-on ways! They got to dress up in the same protective gear that hygienists and dentists wear while working on teeth, and they even had the chance to “act like” teeth while practicing how to be brushed and flossed properly.

They also learned about the right and wrong kinds of foods to eat to keep their teeth and mouths healthy and strong. 🥕🍎🍬 It was a wonderful (and fun!) way to build healthy habits that will last a lifetime.

Thank you, Ms. Johnnie and Laxer, Long and Savage, for helping our students smile a little brighter! 🪥

🔦This week we are spotlighting Ms. Lark's music class:
This week, we have been learning about the Winter Olympic sports through music. We watched professional ice skaters and talked about how their routines are choreographed to music, and then we learned how to use our very own paper plate ice skates to try for ourselves! Students listened for changes in the music and did different movements accordingly. Pictures are of Mrs. Cochran's kindergarten class!

Check out this week's Tomahawk of the Week, Erin Cundiff!

Erin's patience and creativity make a lasting difference in the lives of our kinder babies! From teaching our kids the routines and structures they need to be successful, to leading her team with grace and professionalism, to creating magical learning experiences in a loving classroom environment, she goes above and beyond every single day.

Thank you to Erin for her dedication, kindness, and the joy she brings to her students and our entire school community. We are so lucky to have her on our team! 🌟

Tip of the Week from Mrs. Cundiff:

Build relationships with your students and let them know you love and care for them. Students learn best from teachers they trust and feel safe with. Young students thrive on repetition, consistency and clear expectations! Instead of telling students what to do, model it, practice it and repeat it.

Wednesday, February 4, 2026 ALL Lancaster County schools, buildings, and facilities will be on a two-hour delay. 

Lancaster County School District has carefully assessed campus conditions, including main roads, auxiliary roads, parking areas, and walkways. While many surfaces have improved, some shaded areas still have ice—however temperatures are forecasted to remain above freezing tonight.

To allow additional time for our facilities teams to address any concerns and ensure campuses are as safe as possible for students, staff, and families, Lancaster County School District will operate on a two-hour delay.

We ask all families, staff, and students to continue exercising caution while traveling to school and allot enough time to travel safely.  Keep in mind that a two hour delay is two hours after the school day normally starts. Please avoid areas that may present hazards and be prepared for possible redirection around icy spots upon arrival on campus. We also encourage students to wear appropriate footwear and clothing suited for current weather conditions. Reminder, breakfast is not served during a two-hour delay schedule. The 4K field trip will be rescheduled for a later date.

Thank you for your patience, cooperation, and commitment to student safety as we navigate these conditions together.

As a safety precaution, ALL Lancaster County schools, buildings, and facilities will be on a two-hour delay on Wednesday, February 4, 2026.
