Wausa Youth Basketball will be hosting a D-League Camp on June 9th and 10. We hope to see all our Little Viking Ballers there!

We hope to see Viking Nation at State Track this weekend.

This professional development helps our staff better identify student needs, monitor progress, and provide targeted support to ensure every child continues to grow as a reader. We are excited to continue building strong literacy foundations for all students at Wausa Elementary! 💜💛

It has been an incredible year filled with learning, growth, laughter, and memories. We are so proud of our students and thankful for our amazing staff and families who made this year special.
Have an AMAZING summer, Vikings! ☀️💜💛

A huge thank you to Josh Barney for helping create a math scavenger hunt tied directly to our 4th grade math standards. Students explored the store searching for specific items and solving real-world math problems along the way.
To celebrate all of their hard work, the kids enjoyed ice cream bars on the walk back to school! 🍦
Thank you so much to The Market for welcoming us and helping make math meaningful, engaging, and fun for our students today! Experiences like these help our students see how the skills they are learning in the classroom connect to the real world and prepare them to become confident problem-solvers far beyond 4th grade.
