From The Principal

In case you haven't heard, next year:

  • Max Larsen Elementary will be a Young Fives, Kindergarten, and 1st Grade building.
  • Jefferson Elementary will be a 2nd and 3rd Grade building.
  • Lakeland Elementary will continue to be a 4th and 5th Grade building.

Max Larsen 1st & 2nd Grade students will be visiting Jefferson on May 21st. Parents should have received a letter earlier in the week about this visit. Max Larsen 3rd Grade students will be visiting Lakeland on May 23rd. These visits will give all students and families who will be transitioning to a new building a "first look".

Dig Into Gardening

The Coldwater Area Garden Club is sponsoring a "Dig Into Gardening" summer reading program beginning June 26th. Please contact the office if you are interested and did not receive the flyer.
