Hall of Fame: Recently, 4th, 5th, and 6th graders took a short, general knowledge quiz. We have 27 people who have qualified for our Emerson Hall of Fame competition. This is a Jeopardy format with 6 categories of questions. Our competition will take place on Friday, 12/16, at 1:00 pm in the gym. It’s a lot of extra work and studying on one’s own, so we are very proud of our contestants:

Sylvia Aanstad, Teague Barsness, Elora Boudreau, Riley Butori, Adelyn Cloonan, Jade Cole, Taylyn Duffey, Keira Esquibel, Callista Frolander, Ryder Henry, Dreyko Seibel, Rylan White, Jazzelyn Barnwell, Nathan DeWeert, Rebekah Henke, Dylan Lambson, Kendyl Messing, Nevaeh Morales, Asher Norbury, Analyssa Riojas,  Grace Rowe, Orlin Southwick, McKenna Vaughan, Grace Blodgett, Grayson Jonart, Klara Oliver, and Kaidence Rembert.

Thank you for your generosity!

We know this season can be tough for many, but our Yellowjacket families went above and beyond.

Our Thanksgiving food drive was a huge success. We had over 1200 items sent to the food bank!

Our “Wear Blue” day for Michael Schow “Hulk” raised over $600. We are sending good thoughts to him and his family.

Our chocolate/caramel fundraiser was fantastic. Thanks to everyone who organized the orders and money and the volunteers who sorted. We look forward to some new school upgrades and future fun for the students with the money raised! Our top 10 sellers were: Hannah Black, Daxtyn Dallaserra, Madyx Hardy, McKenzie English, Maxton Arntson, Teague Barsness, Kylen Struble, Navahlee Cunningham, Maci Davies, and Ava Schwartzmiller. They all received a 1 lb chocolate bar!
