Journey Elementary is participating in a โSuper Food Bowlโ Food Drive & Grade Competition! We are collecting food items during the week before the Super Bowl, Jan. 28 โ Feb. 1 and donating the items to the local Food Pantry. Grades will compete against each other. For each item brought, that grade will move their football player 5 yards. Once they go 100 yards, they score 7 points. At the end of the week, we will see which class wins the โSuper Food Bowlโ and a popcorn party! For more information https://5il.co/67i1.


I was able to have lunch with this young man yesterday. His kind heart and ability to think of others were two things that consistently stood out in our conversation. It was great to be able to share some of our conversation with his mom today with the #goodnewscalloftheday.

I love hearing about leaners who persevere and advocate for themselves when a learning target is hard. Mrs. Bauer shared exactly that with me this afternoon when she nominated this young man for the #goodnewscalloftheyday.
